Atlanta Radio: President Making Radio Rounds

President Obama

President Barack Obama may be a pariah on the election trail for many political candidates given his low approval ratings.

But African Americans still overwhelmingly support him. So Obama is making the rounds of radio shows that target blacks in an effort to drum up the vote, according to media blogger Rodney Ho at
ajc.com.

He recently did  interviews with syndicated shows Rickey Smiley (heard on Hot 107.9), Yolanda Adams (on Praise 102.5) and Steve Harvey (on Majic 107.5/97.5).

Collectively, those three personalities draw millions of listeners.

But Obama went for a more targeted audience this morning by talking with Ryan Cameron on WVV 103.3 FM V103. Cameron’s top-rated show is the only local non-syndicated radio show in Atlanta that is geared to a black audience.
