Roby Brock’s Talk Business blog reports that Air America is close to finding an broadcast radio affiliate in Little Rock to carry its programming.

According to Brock:

A call to the Illinois based Nova-M Radio confirms that they are in the process of coming to the capitol city, however the spokesperson would not confirm as to what frequency.

All speculation right now points to KDXE 1380 AM, the area’s ESPN affiliate. The station’s morning show anchored by Today’s THV sports personality Wess Moore was dismissed a few weeks back, and sources close to the station indicate changes are afoot.

Air America is the national left-leaning talk radio network headlined by comedian Al Franken.
