[edit] ABC Radio AU/US
Can i suggest that this page is moved to ABC Radio (United States) and this become a disambig. This is what was done with ABC Kids. The bellman 13:36, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
- I suggest that we not. After all, ABC Radio shows in Australia are often labeled 'Radio National.' Besides which, it may be a moot point after the upcoming merger. —Joseph/N328KF (Talk) 14:28, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
I do suggest that we do split this into a disambiguation page. ABC (Australia) Radio is named as the collection of radio stations owned by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, which are: (Radio National, ABC NewsRadio, ABC Classical FM, ABC Local Radio and JJJ ("triple J").

The "controversy" at the end of this article reads more like a personal grudge from a primary source, and an advertisement for a blog. It begins with the weasel phrase "reportedly", but then cites no sources for the stated "facts". I'm going to remove this section and would welcome a neutral POV recitation of the facts from reputable 3rd party sources if the notability of these events can be demonstrated.StreamingRadioGuide 01:37, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Discussion of edits by Simon Bar Sinister
I have removed the statement "'ABC Radio is a radio broadcasting unit branded by the American Broadcasting Company" and replaced it with "ABC Radio is a broadcasting unit of Citadel Broadcasting Corporation". The American Broadcasting Company has absolutely nothing to do with ABC Radio anymore, Though The Walt Disney Company is a minority owner (Less then 5%) in Citadel Broadcasting all operations and programming are done by Citadel. As far as the ABC Radio trademark is concerned I believe that in the agreement between Disney and Citadel, Citadel has the perpetual right to use the ABC circle logo without further compensation.

[edit] ABC Radio Networks
This article should be renamed as above because that is the proper name of the subject of the article. Unless someone provides a strong and cogent reason not to so I will do the move shortly. Albatross2147 (talk) 03:25, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
I wholeheartedly agree, but every time I have tried to move the article, it would not let me. I hope you have more success. Leroyinc (talk) 00:47, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
I also think this would be a proper renaming of the article. Hopefully someone can make this change happen.--DavidD4scnrt (talk) 07:44, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
