Spin the Secret Squirrel Rumor Wheel© ... send your newstips here (completely confidentially)! We'll publish them verbatim as we can on this site and let God sort 'em out.
Buy your favorite music thru STLMedia ... You can buy DRM-free MP3 songs that will play anywhere (I've dl'd to the hard drive, burned to a CD, and copied to portable drives...no problems!) from Amazon by clicking on the Top MP3 Songs link at right. Every song you buy coughs a few coins into the STLMedia till...thanks for your support!
Next STLMedia Monthly Meeting: Friday morning, July 24th, 9:30AM ...
   ...at Reynold's Roadhouse, 11488 Dorsett Road, Maryland Heights MO.
   Maps here (halfway between Lindbergh & I-270 on Dorsett -- look for the US flag out front and the sign on the building; parking and entrance in back).


Saturday 07-04-09: More progress ... on the move to The Blog:
   1. As STLMedia enters its tenth year of service, all entries from 30 June 2009 back to 2003 are now in the Archive pages, which will be maintained on this website.
   2. All new entries from 1 July 2009 forward are presented and archived month-by-month at http://stlmediastuff.blogspot.com. When appropriate, a link will be posted at the bottom of the entry that will direct you to the relevant area for discussion on the STLMedia Message Board.
   3. All new entries from 1 July 2009 forward are available via RSS feeds and, when subscribed to (subs are free) in your RSS Reader/Aggregator (I use Bloglines), will show up there.
   4. All new entries from 1 July 2009 forward will also show up (within the 140-character limit) if you follow my Twitter feed: @STLMedia. Links are presented there that will take you to the appropriate blog page.
   5. I'm working on a minor revision of some of the Forums in the MB, deleting some which have attracted no traffic and combining others to eliminate redundancy.
   6. For those of you under 40, born with a keyboard in your diapers and for whom this is all second nature, you will never know how much of an adventure accomplishing all this has been for this OldDog. I sincerely thank those of you who have offered assistance, suggestions and guidance while I hammered my way through it all.
   7. Finally, I'm very proud to announce that my friend Frank Absher has agreed to join me as a co-author on the new blog. He'll be presenting commentaries and observations from his perspective as warranted.
   There's more to come; I'll keep ya posted.
   Discuss on the STLMedia Message Board (Registration required).


Previous entries, from 30 June 2009 back to 2003 are available here.
STLMedia Message Board credo: "This board is primarily for STL media professionals who have something intelligent to say about their industry. STLMedia fans and wannabes are welcome to post here as long as they understand that personal attacks or spurious chatter are unwelcome. Honest criticism is good and welcome. Also please understand that I make the Rules Of The Road and that I may change the lines inside which you may color at any time. It's my sandbox. Have fun and play nice or I'll be in touch."

What readers say:
This site is great with the inside info on radio, TV and print. I like your "take no prisoners" attitude.
It's nice to have a source to turn to for media analysis by those in and formerly in "the biz." Congrats on your success and determination in what's often the face of adversity.

Thanks as always for the site, from a media outsider who has always loved the media business.
Mike DeGeorge

Having grown up in St. Louis in the 60s and 70s, it's always interesting to read your take on the St. Louis media. Keep up the good work!

Your site is the watering-hole of St. Louis radio

Interesting site with TONS on it – great job
Dave Lange
VP McVayMedia

I certainly enjoy keeping up with the St. Louis market through your great efforts.
Bob Heil
Love your website. I was in the biz for 12+ years, graduated from SIU-Carbondale. My wife and I are both out of it now, but still try to keep current on what’s happening around here.

This site keeps me in touch with an industry that I love, but have left. Thank you for all you do!
MB: nowjustalistener
I appreciate having a website like this to come to. You take your fair share of shots from some who don't agree with your opinions, but that comes with the territory.
MB: jayedwards42
Thank you for providing a great website, with hours of entertainment as well as hundreds of media related breaking stories. You definitely have a finger on the pulse of St. Louis media!
MB: Q107
It really has been a great year at STLMedia.net. You've provided a fantastic information and networking service for the St. Louis industry during a very eventful year.
MB: Sassy Radio Girl
I always enjoy the site...and I would love to know who keeps "smiting" me (on the MB)!

I have been a huge fan of your website for a long time. I have been out of radio for a few years, but your website keeps me in the loop. Thanks for you great work!
James Hunt
You are truly a disgrace to not only those of us who have worked to be successful in our chosen media, but an all-around disgrace of a human being.
MB: KurtBali
Since I left St Louis I've been in several markets that have radio message boards. Most VERY lame. None have sparked as much debate and passion as Mike's has. You folks in STL have it good. I wish we had a Mike in Seattle to stir the pot and write commentary without hiding behind a vague screen name.
Rob Walker
Mike knows I respect his knowledge and talent. Fact is, Anderson HAS succeeded in radio in St. Louis. He had staying power. Mike is a guy who helps his friends- this I know. Not a lot of radio people are that way. Friends or not, I'll always stand by Mike when someone disparages his abilities.
MB: Burnout
Insiders turn here for the straight scoop...it has passion written all over it, written by a guy who obviously loves radio and holds this troubled post-consolidation industry so many of us love up to a higher standard.
Jerry DelColliano
Probably the best site of its kind in the industry.
Dave Dillon: PD, VP
STL Media does a fantastic job covering radio developments in the area, as well as nationwide. Mike has a stubborn compulsion to follow through on issues. [He] provides an excellent example for every Internet maverick.
Radio Equalizer
Great contacts and he loves to spill my guts.
Secret Squirrel
He knows my secret identity.
