If you prick me, do I not podcast?
A small radio show in the United States says it has fired its home base radio station and turned to podcasting.
There is only one side of this dispute so far, mainly a news release from the show's hosts, Bob Cefail and Laura Betterly, which has the headline: Podcasters fire radio station.
According to the news release, Cefail and Betterly have a show called "The Profit Doctors" which they broadcast through WTAN in Clearwater, Florida.
On September 16, apparently, the station cut off the show's access to their 800 number, with 10 minutes to air. When the station could provide no other way for guests to phone in, Cefail and Betterly walked out and later sent a letter to WTAN, "firing" the station.
The release says
From the websites listed on the news release it appears that their main topic is how to improve marketing in the modern digitial media age.
The Profit Doctors show, on its website, seems to aim at people who want to get "free publicity" for their products.
Their main company In Touch Media group offers seminars and other information for people who want to improve their marketing.
Public sector, private sector, podcasting sector: the times they are a changing.....
