Look at all the markets she's on, keep in mind she's live 3 to 6 PM weekdays EASTERN TIME, that's PRIMO DRIVE TIME BABY:
Miami (where she's got a GIGANTIC fan base), LA, San Fran, Dallas, Detroit, Phoenix, Seattle, Portland, Denver, Buffalo, Raleigh, Reno and more, and note the West Coast stations got her on Noon to 3PM PT, so that's not bad one bit for garnering listeners. You think all those markets are just gonna say fuck it and not find SOME way to get her back?! Dream the fuck on! (Ok, the Phoenix station might be a problem since that's the Nova M flagship!) And what about XM?!
Rhodes, Nova M up in the air
After a vague, unexplained standoff that has seen Randi Rhodes absent from her syndicated Nova M Radio show for the past week, without explanation, her future at Nova M Radio is unclear.
From Nova M's site:
To all of Randi's listeners;
You are all correct - I have not had the option to disclose what has been happening between Randi and Nova M...
You see, it's in her contract that she has total control, but, after Wednesday night, I want you all to know that Nova M has done everything we can to get her back on the air.
All this is her choice; if she wants to tell you all what the issue is, then I hope she does, but I can't according to her contract rules.
But I can tell you this - I have wanted her back on the air. She's an amazing talent and needs to be heard.
Thank you all for all of your support.
Randi now has to make her decisions as to what she must do with her career...

There are conflicting stories (and a heck of a lot of rumors that have popped up in my email box but I won't disclose at this point) regarding the motives behind Rhodes' absence. However, the consensus is that her flagship station, Clear Channel-owned WJNO in West Palm Beach, FL, has been making preparations for her to return to a local-only show. It will likely not be syndicated.
Other rumors claim that Rhodes has cancelled her show until further notice, due to personal issues.
Whatever the case may be, when and if Rhodes returns, it will be via WJNO.
