For all of you who are unaware of who Chuck Goyette is (was would be a better term), he was the talk show host who used to follow Hannity on 550AM KFYI. Apparently, he went the Pat Buchanan way on the war and it got worse from there. Anti-War became anti-Military, and that is a stupid thing to be when you broadcast in an area that is crawling with veterans and people who work for DoD contractors.

In a nutshell, his listenership tanked, so KFYI bumped him to later in the night and moved Liddy and Hill up. This prompted Goyette to write something of a hit-piece on KFYI in The American Conservative. Apparently, at one point or another, the guy threw a temper tantrum and said some rather unpleasant things about Rush, Hannity, and L&H. Then he made a big deal about his contract.

Having burnt all his bridges, he sort of vanished from KFYI without anyone really noticing.

He occasionally wrote articles for the America West Airlines magazine. I was unaware of the stint at Air America, though. It looks as if he took the Lyndon LaRouche approach, then. He went from Right moonbat Left. Sad, as he was allegedly a Goldwater kid. Well, then again, so was Hillary.

Goyette was never on Air America that I know of. After KFYI dumped him he was a fill in on KTAR as their "liberal voice". Burned his bridges on KTAR and could stick around (even with their switch to liberal reporting). He has always been a wolf in sheeps clothing, never truly conservative.AWB
