Michael Feldman's a RIOT!
Got sick of hearing the same old garbage on the AM car radio today. Went to FM and found this GREAT radio variety program hosted by a Michael Feldman called "What Ya Know". The fellas voice and delivery reminds me of a young Bob Newhart. It is really too bad that PBS goes out of their way to cater to the Democrats. They really do have some quality music and programs. But I will NEVER send money to PBS because of their backing of the Dems and liberal causes. -- Ce message a ete poste via la plateforme Web club-Internet.fr This message has been posted by the Web platform club-Internet.fr http://forums.club-internet.fr/ |

Our local public radio station dropped him several years ago. I still miss him. Re public radio and liberalism: Public radio has its own call-in shows. Listen more, and you'll surely find them more balanced than AM radio call-in shows, in the sense that they don't normally engage in insult, character assination, and vituperation of right-wingers, as right-wingers on AM do to people on the left. Public radio discussions are more liberal, in genera. Listen to the civilized discourse, though, and you might come to like it the tone of it better. I grew up when people on the radio did not normally deal in vicious put-downs of their political opponents, and I would dislike right wing talk radio just for that, even if I were not against what they say politically. Plus, public radio has lots of other kinds of neat things, including kinds of music, like folk and jazz, that you'll never hear anywhere else. Explore! And, finally, it does do have screaming commercials. What a relief! Leonard -- "Everything that rises must converge" --Flannery O'Connor |

Insults have been a commidity of commercial radio since the days of The Bickersons and Fred Allen, if not before. NPR isn't quite the same, but the difference is probably cultural rather than political. If I'm not mistaken, NPR grew from the old educational stations. So it stands to reason that NPR would have a more academic tone than commerical radio. Air America is trying to knock-off the Limbaugh style, but they're doing a poor job of it. It's like listening to Georg Byrnes and Gracy Alien. Cultural conservatives can be, and are, polite. The military dosen't do popular talk shows, but I can't imagine them acting in an disrespectful style. And most religious broadcasters, including Chicago's Moody Bible Instutite, has been broadcasting respectful programming since before the days of Edgar Bergan and WC Fields. Plus, public radio has lots of other kinds of neat things, including kinds of music, like folk and jazz, that you'll never hear anywhere else. Explore! Yeah, the Jazz and Blues shows can be pretty good. And, finally, it does do have screaming commercials. What a relief! Leonard I still miss the drag strip commercials on WLS and WCFL. Frank Dresser |
