My version of ritual-thanks to local radio token Lib on otherwise all-wingnut outlet

He's from the Old Midwest (think HUMPHREY), is the only Lib on this thing. I'm puzzled about why they keep him or conversely why he chooses to stay. He's the voice of objective reason when the whole line-up syndicated (LIMBOsevic, Dana LOESH) and locally are wingnuts of the predictably parroting sort.


What I said to him:

I'm basically a Secular Humanist, Nihilist/existentialist (maybe), agnostic (probably), pick one/whatever.

So in the "thanks" ritual holiday, I'm saying thanks to you for your integrity for humane values (am I contradicting myself?) in your hostile work environment (as I see it). I don't know what you have to do to survive there (some unspeakable accommodation with the total wingnut Program Manager?), unspeakable like (owners from Mexico) cashing it all by DIVERSIFYING at the cost of their integrity, but you bring the integrity to that shameless propaganda place.

Here are your most recent (re-)tweets as what-I'm-saying:

Meredith, backed by Koch brothers affiliate, to acquire magazine publisher Time

If President Trump knew the facts, he would never have sent that tweet. Here is my (late) camerawoman Margaret Moth, who took a bullet in the face covering the facts and truth in Bosnia. #FactsFirst 

If you knew nothing about two candidates on their politics or policies except that one was a child predator and the other prosecuted the KKK, that should be more than enough to make a decision.
The case against Roy Moore, distilled. Documents, supporting witnesses, self-incriminating statements. He's guilty as sin. Read and share.
