Formerly smart people descend into madness all the time.

Too true -- even congressional dems had a modicum of intelligence once upon a time. Now look at them.

Interesting that this "announcement" came on WWPR in Bradenton. I worked in Bradenton for two years, I live in St. Petersburg ("the first city north of Bradenton over the Skyway Bridge"). Nobody outside of Bradenton in "the greater Tampa Bay area" knows about this station, and I'd bet you half of the people in Manatee County haven't heard of it either. Calls itself "Pier 1490" and it apparently used to have a website (www.pier1490.com) but it's not online anymore. A couple of years ago I stumbled onto it--oldies, and then on weekends it goes all-Spanish language. Never heard of Bob Beck (sounds like maybe he's trying to confuse folks with Glenn Beck, who was "local" at WLFA 970 Tampa until he "went national" two years ago).
