Latest London Developments-- TV, Talk Radio, Blogosphere Reactions, Coverage Mixed
The Radio Equalizer ^ | July 7, 2005 | Brian Maloney

"...Cable goes wall-to-wall, broadcast networks mixed. Some stations still running regular programming. Local news mostly focused on story, but with major local angles that sometimes seem too provincial.

Focus on the news that has actually occurred. Let's show we care.

Some other stories being covered as well. Actually heard an Aruba update. Let's take a pass on that one for a few days, shall we?

...While the blogosphere jumps right in, talk radio is caught with its pants down. Many regular hosts are away this week and the substitutes in their place range from nightmarish, to completely unairworthy.

...Please leave comments in the section below, no registration required. How are your local radio and TV stations handling it? Or the networks?"

???? Rush is on even as I type, I believe Laura Ingraham was on earlier, and Hannity's not due until 3:00 PM, and I expect he'll be behind the mic as well. Unless this guy's talking about the Errr America types only, who may still be nursing their hangovers and maybe noticing pain upon urination after their Live 8 debauch, I don't know what he's talking about.

I'd forgotten that a lot of hosts went over to Iraq. My bad.
