http://www.airamerica.com The Daily Swarm is reporting an exclusive story: there is apparently now a radio station in Athens, Georgia that has adopted an all-Obama format. According to the Web site, the station (WPUP, 101.1 FM) recently switched over from having a rock playlist to programming a mix of (President Barack) Obamas IPOD, Hawaiian music and clips from the Presidents speeches.
No, theyre not kidding. The question now is what is the stations rationale? Satire? Tribute? Well, a vice president at Cox Radio, which owns the station, let on to the Daily Swarm that it's not exactly a sincere tribute to the commander-in-chief. But like anything political these days, its gotten people fired up. When the Daily Swarm called the stations receptionist, she complained about all the mean people that were phoning in.
This is a college town and they want their rock station, she said. I had a guy call who said Wheres my Motley Crue?!
