New Russian Prez: Zep Fan 

By Chris Miller

Russia's third elected president, Dmitri Medvedev, was sworn into office today, replacing Vladimir Putin.

Why are we talking about this on a Classic Hits station in Atlanta, GA?  'Cause he's a Led Zeppelin fan

Led Zeppelin and other western rock bands were banned in the old Soviet Union. 

SO ... Russia is freely electing its leaders, who are fans of bans that Russians didn't used to be able to hear?  You know what this means for those of us in the Western world?

WE WON!!!!!
