I didn't believe this when Zencomix told me disgraced Congressman Mark Foley was getting his own radio show. Good God! It's true.
ABC News reports WSVU 960 AM is insane enough to give Foley his own show. The program will be called "Inside the Mind of Mark Foley." Personally, being inside Foley's mind is a place I hope to never occupy.
"With everything that's going on with healthcare and everybody questioning what's happening in Washington, DC, we thought who better to explain what's going on than Mark Foley," WSVU spokesman Joseph Raineri said. How about a pundit with less baggage and more credibility than Foley.
Talk radio really doesn't care who they put on-the-air. The more shocking the more likely people will tune in. The fact WSVU pimps Foley has someone of great credentials to the media is even more didturbing.
OMG, Michael, this is crying out for some parody.
ReplyDeleteLet me think on it for a while. Perhaps I need a couple of glasses of wine first, if I'm going to, er, go there. Hmmm.
Appears we feel the same way.

I posted it and hat-tipped you, M.
ReplyDeleteTruly, this stuff writes itself. As Sir C said (of a possible title for the new radio show):
The Children's Hour?
Storytime with Uncle Foley, perhaps? "And on today's 'Sit on my Lap' segment, let's talk about teabagging."

ReplyDeleteWe have a winner.
The Foley show beats Rod Blagojevich with a Fabio-impersanator as most absurb moment for a disgraced pol. I wonder if Blagojevich will be a guest on the show. Speaking of which: why does anyone take Dick Morris seriously?
