XM Partners with C-SPAN, other media outlets on ‘POTUS ‘08′ – a 24-Hour, Commercial-Free XM Radio Channel Devoted to 2008 Presidential Campaign
WASHINGTON, May 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — XM Satellite Radio today announced it will launch a new radio channel dedicated to the 2008 presidential election, marking the first time that a national radio channel has been devoted to a presidential campaign. The 24-hour, commercial-free channel, created in association with C-SPAN and other media outlets, will be called “POTUS ‘08.” The channel’s name (pronounced POH-tus) is the acronym used by government insiders for the President of the United States.
The channel will be “free to air” on XM, meaning that it will be broadcast free to all XM radio receivers. If a consumer has an XM radio but opts not to subscribe to XM, the consumer can still listen to the presidential election channel.
