Lynn lived near me in Woodside. I used to see her in the supermarket but had not seen her in a while. She was friendly although I disagreed with her on most issues. RIP.

Damn
First Neil Rogers last year, now her.

Just damn
As if radio doesn’t suck enough, we keep losing the good intellectually honest ones.

Lynn was as far left as they come, but condolences to her family, friends and fans anyway.

She wasn’t nice to conservatives on the show.

I don't ever recall her being short or snippy with me, nor was she ever less than pleasant with Carl. (What ever happened to CfOB after his gig with Newsmax?)

She was the quintessential leftist New Yorker Jewish liberal with the raspy voice. I have to say she always tried to be fair in her own odd way. She was more a cultural leftist who inherited her leftism from her parents. She wasn’t dogmatic or doctrinaire which drove some her fellow radicals nuts. RIP

He's no longer affiliated with NewsMax?

Since when?

The last time I saw his name it was on a book on a Barnes & Noble display-I think it was about the Clintons-but that was years ago.

On the rare occasion I heard her she had a great sense of New York/Jersey humor. Loved her direct accent.

I heard her with other callers, and she was similar to Bob Grant. I only heard her the last couple of years she was on WABC, aside from when I heard my parents listening to her when I was young. I don’t know what happened to Carl Limbacher.

from my NY Message board post.

Lynn Samuels was the house Lib for WABC Radio in NY.

she was an affable lefty...could not stand her politics but something to like about HER as a person.

Rest in Peace Lynn.
