Reminds me of the Late Great (and I do mean Great) Mark Scott who was a host on WXYT-AM in Detroit back when it was a talker. They were discussing the Cracker Barrel Restaurant policy at the time not to hire homosexuals. He received a call from an admitted homosexual who made the point that said homosexual was no threat to Scott or other customers as said homosexual wouldn't put his hands on customers. Scott stated, "I don't want your hands on me, I don't want you anywhere near me."
I'm sure he had an attitude talk with the boss after that comment because he became slightly less inflammatory toward homosexuals in subsequent shows, but I bet it wasn't a pleasant "talk" for the boss. As he constantly refrained, "A is A".
I lived in Detroit back in ‘82-’87.
I listened to Mark Scott every day.
His brand of Marine discipline, combined with his Objectivist Philosophy, made him a formidable interviewer, and foe. (”They don’t know, and They don’t know that They don’t know.”)
I remember the Cracker Barrel deal, but not as well as you.
You may say that it was Mark Scott who got me hooked into talk radio today, with my avid following of Laura, Monica, Rush, and Mark.
“Excelsior!”
