An old friend returns on AAR

[doc9464]

I missed the first of three weekend guest appearances...but for her fans and listeners....

Arnie Arnesen is filling in for Laura Flanders on the RadioNation show this week and next weekend while Laura is on vacation.

As usual Arnie is doing a bang up job and its good to hear her back on the ar.....give her a listen if you can...

Hopefully this wont be the last time we hear her on progressive/liberal radio...

The only talk host fired because she bashed SUVs on air as "FUVs"...and her New Hampshire radio station
(running ads for dealers that sell them) was not amused. Down with capitalism, comrade! We'll be right back after these messages from our advertisers

heh heh heh.. Actually, it's a he after an operation..and after 30 seconds of listening you get" yada yada yada george bush, george bush, george bush and then george bush, and then george bush did this and tax cuts for the rich and then persecuting child molesters, yada yada yada george bush..Standard Err Amerika script

I'd rather go hunting with Dick Cheney than let Ted 'hickup" Kennedy drive

Ignoring the useless posts....Arnie was on at a great time (at least newswise) if any one was considering her for any slot or potential opening. She was not rusty. Each interview was crisp. It did not appear that her time off the air had affected her in the least. The content was excellent and I hope it will once again prompt a return for Arnie to talk radio.

Arnie is an excellent interviewer and would probably do well with a political version on Fresh Air.

Arnie was in trouble before the SUV comment. She'd lost three of the four stations she'd been, plus the station in Minnesota. Here attempt to syndicate herself had gone nowhere. Either because she was feeling the pressure - or because she got some bad advice - she started trying to be like most other talk show hosts and start ranting and inciting controversy. Her show was on the ropes on her one remaining station anyway and this gave management a cover story for dumping her.

Arnie needs to be herself and she needs to go where she can be herself - public radio.
