PREMIERE NETWORKS has confirmed that RANDI RHODES' show will end on MAY 16th.

A statement from PREMIERE said that RHODES "has decided to end her national radio program. We’ve had a successful partnership with RANDI for several years, and we wish her all the best for the future. PREMIERE NETWORKS will conclude syndication and production of RANDI RHODES on MAY 16th, 2014."

RHODES and PREMIERE came close to ending their relationship in NOVEMBER before RHODES signed a new deal with the syndicator

Since this statement came from Clear Channel’s Premiere Radio Networks on a Friday afternoon, and Rhodes has had issues with Premiere in the past (http://www.coloradomedia.net/forums/showthread.php?25424-Premiere-Drops-Randi-Rhodes-Show-(Carried-On-KKZN-760-AM)-And-Then-Changes-Their-Mind-Extending-Show-Through-December-2014) (as the only liberal host they syndicate), I have a feeling that this is a Clear Channel/Premiere decision. but who knows. Look for Rhodes to come out with her own statement and possibly get a new syndicator. Also with this change, look for KKZN 760 AM to finally change formats.
