Several weeks ago, Art Bell posted (deliberately, unless the accidental liver cancer quip) a message on his Facebook page that he sent a letter to Premiere asking them to cease broadcasting the Somewhere in Time radio shows on Saturday nights. While fans of Bell were confused and somewhat angry, as this is their only venue to hear his voice anymore on radio, most sided with him. The overall consensus is that George Noory took Coast to Coast AM into such a direction that Bell didn't want to be associated with the program anymore.
However, Premiere has yet to respond in any public manner, as does Bell since the initial request was made slightly public.
But tonight, yet again, Premiere will air Somewhere in Time with Art Bell--this one traveling back to August 18, 1999, with Richard C. Hoagland as the guest..
Additionally George Noory still signs off each night's program with Art Bell's name.
Time will tell what action may come next from Bell..
