Calling All Wingnuts

On Sunday, January 14, I was waiting in the Reliable Sources’ Green Room.  I couldn’t find a public listing of the other guests before I got there, so I was pleasantly surprised when Jonah Goldberg showed up.  His segment preceded mine.
Jonah’s segment finished, and I still had a few minutes before I was scheduled.  As […]

About a week ago, after my appearance on Reliable Sources, I received an email from Newsbusters’ Noel Sheppard. Noel was the right wing blogger that wrote what soon came to be the definitive right-wing response to the Spocko controversy. In his email, Noel asked me if I’d be willing to debate him.Knowing I […]

I can’t imagine anything more boring than a blogger self-obsessing about a media performance.  Unfortunately, your humble blogger is exactly the type of person that is prone to such extravagances.
Yesterday, as many of you know, I did Reliable Sources.  The right side of the blogosphere is all atwitter with self-congratulatory circle-jerk posts claiming victory.  A […]

I’ll agree with the wingnutosphere that if this morning was any indication of my future, I’m not going to be hired as a janitor anytime soon. I was a little nervous about the braggadocio preceding the event, but hell, I think you’ve got to be a little bit cocky before stepping into the lion’s […]

CNN with Howie Kurtz from 10-11. I should be on in the second half.
I believe the topic will be KSFO, but I’m really in the dark as to what exactly Howie will want to discuss. At my suggestion, they’ve also invited Dan Riehl, of Riehl World, to debate the topic.
I don’t mean to […]

Well, CAW’s one year anniversary just passed.
It’s been a helluva year.

Oliver North’s “Freedom Alliance” ROTC trainees caught doing something kinda sick…
(video) More Gestapo tactics from Hannity’s “Freedom Concert”
Rush Limbaugh answers a question about viagra
Busting Hannity for his shameless hypocrisy
Ann Coulter has a beard (no, seriously…)
I chat with Newt Gingrich - and ask him about […]

At times, the KSFO special radio afternoon was uproarious and side-splitting. At other times, it was darkly disturbing. Sometimes, it was both at the same time.Unfortunately, “honest,” “serious,” and “relevant” aren’t adjectives that immediately spring to mind after listening to KSFO hosts Melanie Morgan, Brian Sussman, “Occifer Vic” and Lee Rodgers engage in […]

Listen to the audio of the promo they are using to hype tomorrow’s show.
They are every bit as incompetent as their glorious leader, Dudley Do-Right Bush.  It’d be hilarious if it wasn’t so tragic.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
January 11, 2007
 
Background: 
A self described “fifth-tier” anonymous blogger, Spocko, was moved to record the incendiary and hateful rhetoric* he heard broadcast by KSFO.  In an effort to make advertisers aware of the damage that was being done to their brands, he wrote emails to the companies and included links to his blog […]

Little known fact:  my nickname was Mickey when I was a kid.  It’s bound to come out…
So I called Disney this morning and spent half the morning trying to get through to somebody that wanted to talk about the KSFO controvery.  Finally, to their credit (it was only about 30 minutes after my last call), […]
