Need Help Ousting a Local Liberal Masquerading as a Newscaster (Vanity)

Posted on 03/04/2011 4:37:32 AM PST by AbolishCSEU

A Local "Newscaster," Mr. Ted Baker, was quoted as agreeing with the "Fox Lies" chanters when commently endlessly on the union protestors in WI. He is constantly using his "pulpit" for praising the Obama administration, fully duped as he is, yet launching morning diatribes against anything vaguely conservative.


TOPICS: Government; Local News
KEYWORDS: fingerlakes; newyork; talkradio; upstate
I wrote the president of the AM talk radio station which also broadcasts on FM and he wrote back with the following reply:

Thank you for your e-mail. I will certainly pass along your comments to Ted. We have established a very popular segment during the Finger Lakes Morning News where all three hosts on the show air various opinions. Each person tends to offset the other so we get opinions from different points of view. To be honest I’ve had far more positive comments than negative. However, we take all comments seriously and will have a discussion on your points.

We appreciate you listening.

Alan Bishop,GM

I find it very hard to believe (other than Ted Baker's friends and relatives writing in) that they have received more positive feedback on this liberal blowhard than negative. This is the same station that hosts Micheal Savage, Bill Nojay, etc.

If you are in the Fingerlakes area and have heard the nauseating and superior uber liberal Mr. Baker, please write to Mr. Bishop, GM and tell him how you feel.

Make a list of all the advertisers on his show.

You and your friends start calling these businessses to say you will no longer buy their goods or services.

Hit them in the wallet.

No sponsers, no show.

My experience along with some insider knowledge on how these organizations are run shows that

1) The people you are writing to find it funny that you are upset.

2) They will use your email as proof they have listeners when it comes to charging advertisers.

If you want to spook them even a little you have to include their advertisers in your complaint and tell them you will stop using their products. Then they might have a second thought.

It would be totally wrong and you should not in anyway make up about 500 flyers in very large font that say Ted Baker Lies? but the question mark is in original 10 pt. font. Then on 3 consecutive days, post all around the news stations neighborhood, and Ted Bakers neighborhood. You see a wrong person would do such a thing. That wrong person wouldn’t be calling Ted a Liar because he is merely asking a question, because there is a question mark there. Albeit it is a small one, none the less.....a wrongidy wrong person may do such a thing....

Let him go on ...like Keith Olberman they do our cause more good than harm. I suspect his management agrees with him so complaining won’t help..If he upsets you that much don’t listen. I suspect his rating are dismal anyway ,no one likes to listen to liberal drival.

Get your friends together and spend the next thee weekends camped out on his lawn. Hold up signs that say Ted rapes boys and Ted is a communist. And Don’t do the flyer thing...wink wink.

I would also host a “burn advertiser product” day.

Terrorize the terrorist.

Sounds like he may be more like Ted Baxter (for those of us old enough to remember the MTM show)

We have a libtard named Mitch Albom who follows Hannity on WJR here in the Detroit metro area. When he comes on at 5:00 p.m. I just turn him off. He's not worth my time or keystrokes in contacting the station......

Since he's the only libtard on the station, I can't really complain......

“Let him go on ...like Keith Olberman they do our cause more good than harm.”

I have to agree with ontap(sic). The management of the station agrees with the newscaster’s views or he would only have launched one diatribe. Also, when these guys start ranting, they turn off even people who agree with them. Liberals are their own worst enemies.

On the other hand, you attacking him in any way gives further voice to his arguments. You will present yourself to be painted by his brush. He has a wide one and every color in the rainbow. You’ll be helping him get ratings. Just turn the channel and watch something else.

Keep your eye pasted to the local, state and national political scene and support the candidate(s) of your choice. Change reality, not the smoke, mirrors and noise of the “news.”

Start your own local newsblog and take away the need for anyone to listen to him to get their news.

Go to city council, school board, and county commission meetings, cover them and write about them regularly.

Expose a couple of brother-in-law deals at the local level (EVERY town has them) and become a must-read blog that prints the news that no one else will cover. Soon you will have standing as a reporter with real credibility and folks will pay attention to what you write.

It will take a while, but it works.

To be honest my husband works for a big advertiser on that station and has lots of influence with the owner. . . BUT the owner has left leaning opinions as well.
