Convention planning

Both of the big NPR stations in L.A. are going into the field for next week's Democratic convention. At KCRW, Warren Olney will broadcast "To The Point" live from Boston with satirist Harry Shearer at his side, beginning with a one-hour show Monday at 1 p.m. The Santa Monica College station also plans to air the keynote speeches each evening at 7 p.m. KPPC is sending Larry Mantle to do "AirTalk" live each day at 10 a.m. Plans for coverage of the Republicans in New York will be announced later.

Just a heads-up... It's KPCC that's sending Mantle to do "Airtalk."

a bit of a typo, sir: I believe it's "KPCC".

Larry Mantle said on Thursday's show that Kitty Felde will be going to the GOP convention.

So that's balance. Sending the top guy with two daily hours to the Demo event and sending the second fiddle with one to the Rep event.

And who says there is a liberal viewpoint on LA-area radio?
