Hendrie says he isn't hard right or hard left--perhaps conserv. on some issues, liberal on others. One minute he defends Bush's WOT and the next he praises Obama. He puts down talk hosts who do a solid left or right and no deviation approach. Maybe he figures he can draw listeners from both the left and the right. People like Rush make fun of moderates, etc. I have heard a talk host named Alan Nathan who says he's a "militant moderate" and his motto is "we want the Republicans out of our bedrooms, the Democrats out of our wallets, and both away from our First and Second Amendment Rights" WTKK runs the syndie Phil Hendrie show (last night there was a hilarious spoof of Tom Leykis

They figure if they have the appearance of middle ground that Obama might give them a pass. Too bad they haven't taken a lesson from the newspapers. Water down content and people leave anyway.

It was a copy of the crap that filled in for Jay's spot. It reminds me of a local shopper newspaper that is good to take a look at and read but matters not whether one reads it or not as the content has no significance. In the Boston market having no significance over time means having no ratings. But then again, why would the Obama butt boys and gals care? If the weak advertising meets the expenses and they, the butt boys and gals, get to go to the right parties, after all, the party in power has the best parties with the best booze and other enticements, then everything is right, isn't it? Except of course, when Obama and his henchmen come after you.
