This is a good point that a lot of people here are missing.
The $700B has ALREADY been spent. The Big 3 just want a piece of that.
It's not ANOTHER $25B going out.

So either the useless/slimy banks get it, or we give it to companies that actually make something and that provide a living to real middle class people.

you noticed that too??? Didn't want to say anything but yea...kinda nice how he does it.
Should email him directly. Or even his superiors at the station. Hes rambling on about censorship and the media in his radio show..kinda funny how he is doing the same thing on his blogs..

I have emailed him and yet to get a response..wonder if any other CZ28.comers would be willing to email his superiors and complain about his tactics in a free market radio..

her is the contact page for the station.

The program director (his boss) her email:

Thumbs up

Your right stangitr. He is local. thats why I said he had very good ratings numbers. A lot of people in Boston listen to him for his political views.

BUT..

He has called into Don Imus a few times to express his views. As Imus has sometimes local radio guys call his radio show to talk about issues. He fed Imus all that crap and he bought it..now Imus is national. (Now a blowhard or not he has listeners and this local guy played it a few times a day on his show to have a "look here what I did I talked to Imus about this and he and I agree" plug on his show) That is not right.

I started listeing to him for a local vote on a question in the last election and kept listening when he started about the big 3. He was going on always saying "crappy cars" "Pinto's and Gremlins" and people were calling in saying "Yes when the big 3 can build a good reliable car. yada yada yada I will buy". "the Prius is a good american built car made by Toyota!"

Now he is censoring his blogs and not returning emails to people that give the other half of the story. And this is comming from a guy that on his show is always saying every day he likes both sides represented and be counted on issues...yet he is being a hippocrit in deleting and censoring one side of the argument and showing him that not only does he not know a thing about the big 3 but he is flat out telling lies to people that listen to him.

I do not listen to him now as of what he said. But I do cross the dial a few times and listen for a min or two and yup he still does the "do you support the big 3 and thier crappy cars on this bailout...." to this day he does it..
One person addressing tens of thousands of people..in a time when the big 3 do not need this.

Don Imus is an F-ing idiot. So is this ****head. This is typical of the ****, they don't want both sides heard. NOT at all, that's why they have to have every venue. So they can affect a mass of sheeple, controlling their every thaught. One of the reasons I blast them for being brilliant lyers. With tons of people listening to trash all around, it's no wonder the country is going down the ****er. People make their decisions based on what F-ing morons say everyday....

Apparently it'd be a waste of my time, especially seeing as how he's deleting any opposing view points. Now imagine this on a larger scale, say with a much higher rated so-called "news" organization/channel..... Rat Burgers anyone? Before you know it we'll all be driving whatever electric ****box ed begley thinks is acceptable!

But yea thats why I put in his Programing Directors email..she is his boss..and if she gets a few emails from people on his tactics..it just might change something..
Its is not his blog it is the radio stations website. So doing what he is doing is not right. And in fact goes against everything he has said on the radio how he always wants both sides heard. Would be funny if his boss found out.
Heck I got three more emails this weekend from people saying the same thing. They posted to the blog in support of the big 3 and its not there and emailed him and no reply..

Oh I'm with you, it's more than wrong! I've been bitching about this kind of thing for a while now. I've even gone on record here calling it criminal. I've never listened to this show. I agree, but without hearing his show, how can I legitimately attest to his tactics? I agree this is the last thing the big 3 needs right now. I guess for anyone hearing this drivel who dissagrees, by all means, flood that place with emails....I doubt it would ever get anywhere, being as his boss likely shares his idiotic views!

Well not so much as he was just hired there only a year ago and was shuffled around till he settled in at the 9-12 spot..and from what I heard from other people that he got shoved out of town at his old radio gig for the same tactics he is doing here..and I agree its criminal..very much so.

I would not post this just for fun and yes you would have to listen to the drivel he is promoting..but the crap he is spewing is not fair and its hurting our fabric of our nation..but I don't have to tell you you know this

His boss knows exactly what he's doing and saying.
The fact that some of you guys know what's he saying proves to them that you are listening and/or reading. That's all they care about.
The best way to hurt these kind of guys is to just totally tune out.

There's a guy in Syracuse just like this guy. His name is Jim Reith. Very controversial. So many people write to the radio station or on their website or other CNY websites to complain about this guy.

The station LOVES that. They cannot buy that kind of publicity.

Right ratings....Why? Because if more sheeple listen, more sheeple will buy the products advertised on their stations. So as I've said before, IF yall want to do something about it, do it with your wallets! Listen and figure out which products and companies advertise with organizations who condone/put out such lies, in an effort to push their agendas. Boycott their goods/services, this would hurt them. Same goes for other companies doing things we don't agree with. IF everyone did this, we wouldn't be 1/2 as bad off as we are right now!

It's ironic that the thing that started my hatred for the media, so many years ago, was their hatred for GM! Now here we are probably 20 years from when I began to see these things. And it's only grown stronger, and stronger, thanks to "journalists" like these. I knew what this constant trashing would do, I warned, but I was just a nut!! Now here we are, with this clear hatred and bias against the big 3 staring US ALL right in the face, all the way from the press to the Whitehouse. There isn't a person in the world that could convince me, that this constant trashing by the media ***holes, of our country, our workers, and our abilities here in America, isn't directly related to this current crisis! I hate to say it, so I won't....
