He lacks 100% blind loyalty to Lord Jorge Bushamecha.

He is an infidel.

I remember Putnam's daily "Talk Back" program on KRLA. I miss both KRLA and Putnam.

I remember in the early 60's hearing Putnam railing against the evils of miscegenation... (interracial marriage)

Thanks for the post, Karl.
I am a big fan of George Putnam.
I read the other day where he is going to be on the air again.
I guess I'll have to catch him online since I can't raise the station he's broadcasting from.
Semper Fi,
Kelly

I don't quite understand what you're saying???

Putnam backed McClintock in the recall.

I'm making fun of the fact that Putnam is a conservative who dares disagree with Bush and doesn't pray to Bush like so many on this forum.

I'm not surprised he back Tom. Most principled, unbreakable conservatives did.

Excuse me if I find it hard to believe. I doubt that George Putnam would have been offered the largest contract in broadcasting at that time if he in anyway came off as a racist.

Back then there was not any real stygma attached to what we now call "racism". Doubt all you desire but I sat in front of the tube and watched it myself.

** Putnam on the Internet (from laradio.com)
“The other day there was an item on George Putnam and his new radio home, KSPA 1510 AM Ontario, but that station is almost impossible to hear in Southern California except for the Riverside/San Bernardino area. If you have cable and are in a place where you can access your cable during the time he is broadcasting, Noon to 2pm M-F, you can listen through KPXN channel 30 [SAP]. But everyone reading this on LARadio.com already has a computer and can listen from work or wherever (around the world) through the Internet. Very easy with a very clear signal from Cable Radio Network (and no, I don't work for either CRN or George). Click the CRN1 channel on www.cableradionetwork.com and listen away! Isn't it fascinating that George is very much a pioneer in broadcasting yet here he is, on the cutting edge of "The Revolution in Radio" (current issue of Time). What stories he has to tell!” – Carol DeLis

Thanks for the reminder, Karl. I've been so busy with my work, I forgot to check him out on the internet. I couldn't raise him on the am radio.

Have you listened to his program since he came back?
And have you heard any news as to whether he will be back on the LA/OC radio waves anytime soon?

Semper Fi,
Kelly

Being against interracial marriage does not mean you're a racist!
