You forgot the very shrill, irritating, fingernails-on-blackboard voice.
She was a hot little firecracker at one time though. Always had the story about how Ted Nugent pulled down her peasant blouse to get a gander at her jugs.
Then years later she told a story about another rock guy that *also* pulled down her peasant blouse to get a look at her jugs.
I started putting two and two together and wondered what she was doing prowling around braless in her peasant blouse… seemed awful “available” and “accommodating” to me.
Another weird thing – she has some younger kid named TJ or CJ or PJ or something. She used to talk about him all the time. He was probably 6 or 7 back then. But she also had a much older son – probably 19 or 20 at that time. I don’t know if he was from a previous marriage or was a doper or in prison or what, but she NEVER (or very rarely) even acknowledged that he exists.
Very interesting because she used to spend much time heaping praise on the younger kid but ignores the other. Whatever.
What happened to her murder-mystery she was “investigating,” I wonder…
Right-tee-oh, Mr. Lee!
Old "Rah-Did-Dee-Oh" can be mighty frustrating - and alluring.
I am glad to be out of it. I wouldn't enter a studio again to work for a living without being armed - significantly armed.
Thanks for your note!
PS-"Next news at 8:30...newsbreaks as they happen."
We’ll see, I guess.
Of course, she could settle the whole issue of whether or not her being terminated was the result of ABC being liberals or her being a not-so-good talk radio host by telling us what these compromises were. The fact that she is not suggests that she was not fired for political reasons.
Huh? Is Melanie Morgan writing to her list of Move America Forward supporters whining? I wonder if you read her letter or just don't like Melanie? You're being way too critical of someone whose done a lot of good for issues that FReepers care about.
I read it and she was whining. Conservatives whine also you know.
If you think that KSFO can do a better job than Lee+Melanie+Officer Vic then I'd like to hear who you'd have in mind?
KNEW gets crushed in the mornings by KSFO. And it's because these 3 have a chemistry that is unreplaceable.
Morning Show (with Lee and Mel) on KSFO is their highest-rated program by far!
Any chance she'll go on Satellite Radio?
Since her husband (Jim Swanson) is the KSFO station manager, ABC knows that she can't make too many waves about being terminated for political reasons or he'll be canned as well. She'll probably do fine in syndication since she is such a hard worker and has developed so many conservative contacts, but she'll be missed in the Bay Area and California if she goes national.
The goods news is that they haven't wiped her off the KSFOradio.com website yet, so maybe the impass will be broken. She was fighting back tears on the show Friday morning explaining the situation. She's always had a tricky time negotiating new contracts with her husband being in management. In the past she was technically employed by the news service that KSFO used for their updates.
KSFO is the original Freeper radio station in the Bay Area. If Freepers don't support them they'll be slowly watered down to nothing by the ABCDisney people.
In her prior life, she had a gambling problem. There was even a made for tv moview about it. Anyway, she got straight at GA and has been a solid conservative since.
I am curious because her husband Jack iis/was the program manager at KSFO. Not sure what is going on there.

OOPS. "Jim Swanson" should be "Jack Swanson".
They can now call themselves KRSH, because Rush is all they gots left. Right?"
I think this post above says it all!
Today it was Barbara Simpson and the news reader guy with no Officer Vick or Brian Sussman, ( Lee is off on Mondays) I wonder if there was a display of sympathy for Melanie?
Yes, indeed. I wrote the same thing in reply to someone on another thread who suggested they replace Mel with Barbara Simson. Barbara might be fine for a weekend show when there isn't much going on, and there isn't much else in political talk to listen to... but to get your day going in the Morning she was awful (in my opinion).
Maybe she was just nervous, but I got SO BORED listening to her and the other guy - neither of them was interesting and together they had absolutely NO chemistry.
uh....ABC is trying to sell the radio networks....why sign people to new contracts?
Close - her husband Jack Swanson is Program Director - and he's below the Station Manager - Mickey Luckoff.
So far WABC is being left alone. Pretty good lineup with Curtis & Kuby, Rush, Sean, The Great One, and Laura. Some of the fill-ins are pretty good too.
They will be banished from all my radio dials if they mess with the current players.
Fair enough. But since Melanie's a friend, and since I DON'T think Melanie's whining, then I'll just whine about your bemoaning her whining. I think it's always easy for people to post a critical message on a message board, whereas I think it takes a lot more to actually go out and make a difference in the world. I think Melanie's done that, and deserves more respect from FR posters than someone coming and throwing around a one-sentence peanut gallery complaint.
