Great quote about 101.5 in NJ: "101.5 believes in the format, doesn't fire hosts for content and has never given in to pressure from an advertiser."

Although, he mentions Dick & Skibba as an example of the potential of FM-Talk, so that sort of destroy's the article's credibility.

I wish Manelli would comment on party hats for my birthday party that should be starting soon.

Interesting.
Nice mention for Jefe & Dubs.
I would do my best to listen to them wherever they went.

The NJ Guys (http://www.nj1015.com/personalities/carton-rossi.shtm)' station stuck with them when they confronted illegal aliens and police retribution for the bad publicity when Governer John Corzine's (http://www.state.nj.us/governor/) trip to meet with Don Imus and the losing Rutgers Womans Basketball team but not when they confronted Acting Gov Cody and Jun Choi.

Their station doesn't fire them but it censors their content from then on.

In addition to an on-air apology to Choi, officials at 101.5 FM agreed to a stronger policy against racist speech, diversity training, and on-air promotion of Asian-American events in the area. They also agreed to have Mr. Choi on the show to talk about the election and his campaign.

Does it feel good to have no idea what you're talking about?

Yeah SOS, watch and learn from Matty, he makes a living out of not knowing what he is talking about. :tongue:
