Wasn't jitters. It was a display of a complete lack of talent, skill and class.

They'll find out real quick what market forces really are.
I heard from libs that he sucked major.

OK, just curious. WHo heard the show? I didn't even know it was starting this week. Is there a website that shows the local station(s)?

The reason I'm asking is because I've been itching to take a few bites outta Flunkin. It'd be fitting to do it on his own show....

And I haven't had any broiled liberal meat all month. I've been a good boy and I think I deserve it.

His first few minutes, reading a script promising, “A battle for truth, justice and indeed America itself … not to be too grandiose,” was funny enough, but was read with enough tension in his voice you’d have looked away in embarrassment were he performing stand-up in front of you.

He won't take calls from conservatives. He'd melt.

Kato Kalin had a longer radio career than this puss-head will have.

The O'Frankenstein Factor - these guys can't do anything original. Maybe this will push O'Reilly back over to the conservative side during this election cycle - if O'Reilly doesn't sue them outright for the "Factor".

This will likely be my only comment on Franken for the simple reason that I won't comment on something I don't listen to. (I am commenting now on the article that was posted on the site, and no more.)

As far as the show goes, my policy will be "Don't Listen, Don't Review, Don't Tap on the Glass, Don't Feed the Animals, etc."

I'm sure some of you -- against better judgment -- tuned into Franken's first show. And I'll bet that he tried tweaking your noses a bit, and I'll further gamble that some of you were provoked or at least ticked off by it. I, on the other hand,while I was in my car, was tuned into Rush -- even though it was a sub filling in and even during the commercials. (Okay, I may have flipped over to WPLJ during one commercial break . . .)

Life's too short -- though not as short as Franken's radio career will likely be. By the way, NY Daily News had a great article today. It seems the folks in Harlem aint to happy with Franken. W-LIB (how's that for the perfect station, eh?) used to have Carribean music. Not any more. Can't really find it in NYC anymore thanks to Air America.

Oh, and should Air America actually get a following of devoted listeners, should we call them Airheads?

[hellinahandcart]

"Jitters plague Franken" just about all the time. Have you ever taken a good look at that guy's eyes? They are vibrating in their sockets.

Phil Donahue's eyes used to do the same thing.

Bah, I don't see why Frankin should have the jitters.

It's not like anyone is actually really listening to him.
