Starting in 2010, Don Barrett has made his daily news posts at LARadio.com free without registering. Today, for example, there are items on Pandora, Rush Limbaugh, Adam Carolla and a lot of reaction to the death of Rory Markas. Barrett explains:
LARadio.com will be live and local with constant updates of LARadio news that will include an ongoing Email section. Not quite a message board, but there will be an opportunity to post your comments about on-going news and stories in virtually real time...The business strategy is to create a vibrant site about Los Angeles Radio and attract new fans who will discover the site.
Subscribers (for $39.95) still get premium access to Barrett's insider column, 12 years of archives, 1,000 email addresses of Los Angeles radio people and more.
