Scott may have something on Jay this time, but, there is a lot of history between Jay and the Boston Globe, and especially Scott Lehigh. More than once, the Globe has written things about Jay Severin that was demonstrably false. Subsequently, Jay has spent hours bashing Scott Lehigh, the Globe's editors, and other writers. So, if this were a boxing match, the Globe just landed a power punch, but they already have been down on the mat at least once before this.

The Globe hates Jay because he talks national elections and politics. Jay has a decent following, but I think it has shrunk of late due to his isolationist stance with respect to the WOT and his views of GWB.

Every listener who has listened for more than a couple of years must know by now Jay is a phony with respect to his private life, that is, he isn't single and he has a child. Somehow he thinks it is cool to pretend he is a 52 yo ladies (young chick) man and free and easy.

Jay's biggest gaff of late is to be a panelist on the Tucker Carlson show on MSNBC with that clipped haired-mean faced dyke opposite him. He was too civil and couldn't rip her apart as he would on radio.

WRT to Howie, this is why he is entertaining: Maine asshole humor, animal destruction jokes, fart jokes, gluttony gags, Submit, Whitey watch, Wizard of 'ahs, and the fact that he says almost nothing of import.

Actually, his biggest gaffe, if you believe certain reports, was to engage in some sort of off-camera hanky panky at MSNBC, which led to him getting fired after only a couple of weeks on the air. More here:

Jay used to be ok until he began to support the Dems, but not support the Dems, if you know what I mean. There's enough criticism of Bush on the MSM that we don't need to hear him go on with the same rant repeatedly. Also, I've noticed that I can't turn on that station without finding it in the middle of a commercial break, usually a very long one. It appears that commercials account for the largest protion of content. And when Jay stoops to on-air product promotion (Perfect smiles / Contertop Shope etc.,), I just want to throw up. For all his past criticism of AM stations, WTTK(sp?)is no better.
