- KRCL Will Open Its Doors to the Salt Lake Community
April 2 marked the groundbreaking event for KRCL’s “Next Generation” third space in Salt Lake City’s Guadalupe neighborhood. Credit: KRCL Five years ago, the listener-supported, community radio voice in the Great Salt Lake region made a bold move. KRCL(FM) 90.9 FM, on the air since 1979, sold its building in 2021 at 1971 West North Temple St. in Salt Lake, where the station had been located for 20 years. The station moved about two-and-a-half miles east to a former mattress warehouse on West 300 North. It partnered with Giv Group, a Salt Lake-based developer with a sustainability mindset. The new location, in Salt Lake’s Guadalupe neighborhood, is much closer to its downtown. But the studio move was only phase one of KRCL’s plan. On April 2, the station revealed to its listeners what it really desired: a space for Utah’s newest independent venue for live community performances and gatherings.

Credit: Cirque Studio In 2021, KRCL’s new home had to quickly be converted into studios and offices that the station would use to keep broadcasting rather seamlessly. That was phase one. Some of its longtime listeners, KRCL Executive Director Gavin Dahl told us, wondered why the station would move from a building it owned into a seemingly “never-ending” construction zone. But to ensure it secured funding to survive in the interim, it kept its community space plans under secrecy. The second phase resulted in expansion of the space, where KRCL added offices, common areas and an upgrade to its live band room to record performances, including sound, lighting and video equipment. Finally, the “Next Generation” is a performance space that is capable of hosting more than 100 live events each year that can also be lent to the community. The facility will include an all-ages performance hall with a 200-seat capacity, an outdoor plaza, three production studios and a conference room, as well as an educational studio dedicated to Donna Maldonado, the station’s former general manager. All from its newfound neighborhood digs in a growing neighborhood described as “covert, creative, diverse and proximate.” “Our block is a unique connection point,” Dahl said. The West 300 North location is also one of only three locations in the Salt Lake Valley where Utah Transit Authority’s commuter railway, FrontRunner, meets… [TheTopNews] Read More.29 mins ago - ‘Disloyal Disaster!’ Trump Trashes ‘Sleazebag’ Republican Senator Battli...
(AP Photo/Susan Walsh) President Donald Trump slammed Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) as a “disloyal loser” in a Saturday call for voters to back his Cassidy’s primary challenger. Trump took to Truth Social on Saturday morning to focus on Cassidy’s primary where the senator is facing Rep. Julia Letlow (R-LA), who has the backing of the president. Cassidy is also facing state Treasurer John Fleming. It’s the senator’s first primary challenge since he voted to convict Trump in a 2021 impeachment trial. Trump wrote: Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana is a disloyal disaster. His entire past campaign for the Senate was about “TRUMP,” how he’s with me all the way, and then, after winning, he turned around and voted to IMPEACH me for something that has now proven to be total “bullshit!” He knew that at the time, but didn’t care. Bill Cassidy is a sleazebag, a terrible guy, who is BAD FOR LOUISIANA. Now he’s going to get CLOBBERED, hopefully, in today’s BIG election, by two great people!!! VOTE TODAY FOR JULIA L. She Is a winner who will NEVER let you down. I LOVE LOUISIANA, won it all three times, and got the most votes in its history, by far (A record!!!), despite its big time and “storied,” political past. THE ELECTION IS TODAY – please get out and VOTE!!! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP Cassidy was asked last month by CNN’s Manu Raju about Trump’s repeated accusation that he is “disloyal.” After avoiding the question multiple times, the senator said he is “loyal to the United States of America. And I’m going to do my darnedest and work for the President whenever we’re working for the best of the U.S.” Voters are weighing in on Cassidy’s future on Saturday. If no candidate earns a majority of the votes, the top two candidates will face off in a runoff vote at the end of June.The post ‘Disloyal Disaster!’ Trump Trashes ‘Sleazebag’ Republican Senator Battling Primary Challengers first appeared on Mediaite.

Comedian and pundit Bill Maher revealed his biggesst disappointment with President Donald Trump over his trip to China for a summit with China’s President Xi Jinping. On Friday night’s edition of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, the interview guest was Ben McKenzie, who wrote, directed, and produced the new documentary “Everyone is Lying to You for Money.” The panel guests were Dan Jones, historian, podcaster, and author of the forthcoming book “Castles: A Fortified History of the World from the Bronze Age to the Nuclear Age”; and David French, New York Times columnist, visiting professor at Lipscomb University, and co-host of the podcast “Advisory Opinions.” During the panel segment, Maher said his biggest “disappointment” from the trip was Trump’s failure to make progress on the issue of Artificial Intelligence: BILL MAHER: I appreciate that. I know why you’re happy that the big summit in China went fantastic. No, Trump is on his way back right now. It’s late Friday afternoon in Los Angeles. He’s probably in the air, coming back to Andrews Air Force Base and relations with China. I can just tell they’re better now. I ordered takeout today. And the menu said, go ahead, make some substitution. Which you don’t often see on the menu. But honestly, Trump, he hates China, but he loves Xi. He loves President Xi. To say this was a love fest between these two guys is an understatement. As he left, Trump thanked Xi profusely for his hospitality, and Xi thanked Trump for making China way more popular around the world. It’s funny–. Our two countries have a lot of issues between them, but it seemed like in this big summit, there were mostly avoided, no demands, except you have to try these dumplings. That was the only… And, uh… No, you know what? China knows what Trump likes. What does he like? He likes the pump and the parades, and he likes the red carpet, and there were thousands of children waving American flags and… You know, and Xi, he’s clever, you know. He knows. He bargained like someone who knows he holds the cards now, ever since Trump backed down on their big trade war. In fact, as a subtle dig, they served orange chicken. S-subtle, the Chinese. Yeah, and Xi, Xi not holding back here, he said, we are a declining nation. Oh, and Trump, he said, you know, he doesn’t engage him like that. He… [TheTopNews] Read More.1 hour ago - Best of Show: Skyview Networks Cirocast

Winners were chosen by a panel of engineers and RW editorial staff for their innovation, feature set, cost efficiency and performance in serving the industry. Information about how the program works can be found in a FAQ here. Technical and regulatory trends are driving a need to migrate from satellite systems to IP, according to Skyview Networks. Cirocast is a new cloud-native audio distribution platform. “It is the first radio distribution platform to perform real-time, per-affiliate ad assembly and automation triggering in the cloud,” Skyview says. “Finished feeds reach versatile endpoints including cloud automation systems, IP codecs, purpose-built hardware or fully virtual deployments.” Audio is delivered to the cloud. Ad traffic instructions and commercial audio connect through Skyview’s Adview Inventory Management platform or a network’s existing traffic system. Cirocast’s Feed Orchestrator detects break markers such as cue tones, embedded metadata or SCTE-35 triggers, and selects the correct spot by market and campaign, normalizes loudness and mixes a unique feed for each endpoint. “Satellite’s rigid copy splits become flexible, addressable inventory with targeting granularity that legacy distribution workflows cannot match. TCP/UDP, APIs, metadata and GPIO integration maintain automation compatibility across legacy and modern infrastructure.” Info: https://cirocast.com Read more coverage of our Best of Show recipients.

On Friday’s edition of CNN’s The Lead, Tapper went off on Trump, calling his rant “deranged” and diefiantly declaring “reporting these facts isn’t treason”: TAPPER: President Trump had some choice words on Air Force One for the widely respected New York Times national security reporter and CNN analyst, David Sanger. (BEGIN VIDEO CLIP) TRUMP: I had a total military victory, but the fake news, guys like you write incorrectly. You’re a fake guy and guys like you write about it incorrectly. We had a total military victory. I actually think it’s sort of treasonous what you write, but you and “The New York Times” and CNN, you should be ashamed of this. I actually think it’s treason when you write like they’re doing well militarily. (END VIDEO CLIP) TAPPER: This is all part of a Trump campaign. Here’s a Truth Social post from earlier this week. “When the fake news says that the Iranian enemy is doing well militarily against us, it’s virtual treason in that it is such a false and even preposterous statement. They are aiding and abetting the enemy. All it does is give Iran false hope when none should exist.” So two important points here. One, “The New York Times” has not reported that the Iranians are doing, “well” militarily, nor has CNN. “The New York Times” and CNN have reported, as is accurate, that despite devastating U.S. and Israeli blows to the Iranian military and Iranian leadership, the Iranians continue to have some military abilities. Three days ago, “The Times” reported that U.S. intelligence shows Iran retains substantial missile capabilities, “operational access to 30 of its 33 missile sites along the Strait of Hormuz.” On April 2nd, CNN reported U.S. intelligence assessed, “half of Iran’s missile launchers roughly were intact and thousands of one-way attack drones remain in Iran’s arsenal.” And yesterday, CNN did an analysis noting the intelligence contradicts Trump’s assertions about how obliterated Iran’s military actually is. All of what “The Times” and CNN have reported is 100 percent true. This is what… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago
- ABC Drops Scathing New Deets on Trump’s $1.7 Billion IRS Deal To Drop Suit
President Donald Trump speaks to reporters at an event about maternal healthcare, Monday, May 11, 2026, in the Oval Office of the White House, in Washington. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin) ABC News dropped new details on the alleged deal President Donald Trump will get to drop an IRS lawsuit, including a figure that’s a nod to the United States and behind the scenes maneuvering that originally included a plan to have the president paid directly. Katherine Faulders, Peter Charalambous, and Alexander Mallin dropped a report on Saturday morning, citing sources familiar with the situation, about the potential “Truth and Justice Commission,” which would see sums paid to people who were unfairly targeted by the IRS and Justice Department, which critics fear could include those involved in the January 6 Capitol riot, ABC first reported on Thursday about a potential plan to have Trump drop a $10 billion lawsuit in exchange for the creation of a $1.7 billion fund that could see his allies receive payments. Trump is suing the IRS over his tax returns being leaked in 2019 and 2020. According to the new report, the exact figure for the commission will be $1.776 billion in a nod to to the year to the United States was founded. Sources told ABC that the creation of the commission was ultimately landed on after “months of deliberations between the White House and DOJ officials who originally attempted to craft a legal justification for the settlement to compensate Trump directly.” Trump would not be able to be paid directly from the new commission, which critics have already red-flagged. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) slammed it this week as “corruption” and a “slush fund” for the president’s allies. Trump’s lawsuit against the IRS has been complicated for lawyers as it presents the odd dilemma of Trump suing agencies that he is currently in charge of. ABC reported: Advocating a centuries-old legal principle known as the “rule of necessity,” DOJ lawyers have argued that no alternative existed other than letting the lawsuit proceed with Trump acting as the plaintiff while being directly in charge of the defendants — the IRS and Treasury — according to sources. Sources said that plan was ultimately scuttled in favor of the $1.776 billion compensation fund — with the figure being a nod to the nation’s founding — as the judge overseeing Trump’s IRS lawsuit began to raise issues with Trump suing… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago
