RADIO MAN SLAIN
WABC'S GEORGE WEBER STABBED IN B'KLYN APT.

Former WABC Radio newsman George Weber was found murdered in his
Brooklyn apartment yesterday after failing to report to work for two
days, sources told The Post.

Weber, who would have turned 48 today, was discovered half-naked in
his bed shortly before 10 a.m. inside his apartment with his throat
slashed and more than a dozen stab wounds to his neck.

His hands and feet were bound with duct tape, sources said.

There were no signs of forced entry at Weber's apartment on Henry
Street in Carroll Gardens, sources said. The bathtub spigot was
running and the place had been ransacked, said one source, who
described the home as "a bloody mess."

Detectives were investigating the possibility he knew his attacker.

His bosses, concerned that he hadn't shown up for work, had called
cops.

Police sources said they believed that Weber, who began at WABC in
1996 and was a regular on the "Curtis & Kuby" program, was killed on
Friday night.

"George lived his whole life as a high-profile newsman, and to the
best of my knowledge never made a single enemy," said lawyer Ron Kuby,
one of the cancelled show's co-hosts.

Curtis Sliwa said Weber used his beloved Dachshund, Noodles, as an
icebreaker to score interviews.

"The guy was fearless," said Sliwa. "Him and Noodles would pursue a
story no matter where it was."

Weber contributed to a show Mayor Bloomberg did on WABC. "George was
the kind of professional who could give you the news and his views
without one getting in the way of the other," Bloomberg said.

Weber was let go last year, but landed at ABC News, which provides
national network stories to stations across the country, including
WABC.

"He always said he had the best job in the best city in the world,"
said Mike Caragliano, who worked with him in the studio.

Was he an IBOC jammer? LOL!

What bull****... "liberal fascists"... there is no such animal...

The description of the scene sounds much more like a sexual liason gone
horribly wrong.. when you live in a large city, you read about this kind of
thing all the time. Someone picks up someone in a bar or other seedy
gathering place, and ends up being murdered (usually in a hate crime) by
their "pick up". I remember about 20 years ago it happened in Portland.
The idiot picked up a hitch-hiker in the wee hours of the morning and tried
to have sex with him, ended up tied to a chair in his home with a bullet
through his head and his house ransacked. Don't remember what happened to
the perp.
