Shanklin was on Andrew Clark SR. on AM600 WREC defending this yesterday. He gave of course the backstory.
That’s what’s so hilarious about this “scandal”, or would
be if the media actually reported on it. As the lyrics
clearly say, the song’s theme comes from the LA Times.
It also includes the infamous Joe Biden material about
Obama being “articulate” and “clean”. If they’re unhappy,
it should be with the LA Times, Joe Biden, and others
who the song was quoting. This is yet another example of
the fact that the mainstream media does zero background
checking or reporting for stories and simply reports
things as if there were no objective facts to reveal or
explain.
