I just heard Chuck Harder died ... can you verify this? I know he's been brain dead a long time, but other than that I haven't heard he got planted yet. SC Truthfully, despite what I heard the other day (no, I did not imagine it), I honestly don't know what Chuck Harder's situation is. Like I've said for years, Chuck should have retired long ago. His political constituency (I call it the Timothy McVeigh crowd) is long gone. The only reason Chuck is still on the radio is because he is still on the radio. I realize that sounds a bit recursive - an example of "circular reasoning" - but it's the only explanation I can come up with. I guess radio talk show hosts are like civil service folks (or Supreme Court members): they're in it for life, and it's awfully hard - or impossible - to fire them. Late last week, to find out more about what happened to Chuck, I tuned in to his radio network (TalkStar) early in the morning and kept it on until Chuck's program cranked up. There was no mention of Chuck during the earlier shows - absolutely nothing. It was as if "For The People" never existed. That contrasts with Chuck's earlier networks, where the hosts of the other programs - both before and after "For The People" - would mention the show on a fairly regular basis. Not to mention all the ads for "For The People," most of which were narrated by Chuck himself. Not this time. The spookiest aspect of Chuck is the fact that he doesn't take callers anymore, and hasn't done so for over a year. Why? Finally, there's that cute gal with the light Southern accent urging Chuck's listeners to "e-mail two friends" to tune in, so that Chuck can "double" his audience and rescue the U.S. of A. because "now, more than ever, America needs Chuck Harder." Sadly, those PSA's are starting to get on my nerves. |
