On Saturday, August 16th 2008, 1500 or so Seattlites, myself included, turned out to attend the progressive talk radio KPTK am1090's speakers forum featuring many of the show hosts from around the country. Seattle's own Ron Reagan acted as moderator for Stephanie Miller from California, Thom Hartman from Portland Oregon, Rachel Maddow from New York, Sam Sedar also from New York, Randi Rhodes who broadcasts from Florida and Mike Malloy out of Georgia.
It was a very hot day so I was initially glad they had moved from the previous years' location at Seattle Town Hall to the air conditioned Exhibition Center at Seattle Center. I have mixed reviews for the new venue however. It was hard to see or hear anything. Still, it was fun to see many of my favorite radio hosts in person. Here are a couple of pictures from the event...
