Radio host scolded over Obama coverage

Postby Final Trumpet on Mon Oct 20, 2008 9:59 am

A talk-radio host was reprimanded on air by his executive producer Wednesday after he received complaints about his coverage of Sen. Barack Obama.

KDKA-AM 1020 host Kevin Miller was silenced when executive producer P.J. Kumanchik read a CBS statement accusing Miller of being unfairly biased against Obama.

You have got to be kidding me! What about those who are unfairly biased against McCain? This is so crazy, I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

Locally we had a police chief get reprimanded for referring to Obama at a political rally as, get this...Barack Hussein Obama....the democratic people felt that the use of Obama's middle name was intended to make him look bad because some people might think of Saddam Hussein when they heard it.

Between this, the story of Jessica and the story of Joe the Plumber, not to mention Obama's speeches themselves and his stances, or in most cases lack of definitive stances, on issues, and his past affiliations and such, this man just gives me the heebee jeebees. I still can't honestly understand how anyone can vote for him. The only way my mind can grasp it is that his fans (that's what the media call his supporters) are under an extreme delusion of Biblical proportions.

Methinks the sane are more in number. The opposing group just screams louder.


Of course, I could be out to lunch.
