"Huggy" Is On The GOP Payroll

The article said the station had no problem with that. Also WRKO had no prob with Finneran
being connected to one of the sides in the "right to repair" debate (even though the _other_
side of that issue sponsored the gov debate that aired on Finn & Fein)

I can think of a few local broadcast journalists that don't adhere to "journalistic guidelines." But I'd agree who really cares anymore. If somebody wants to take a GOP/Dem paycheck and be on-air so what. Just disclose it.

One is not excused from rudimentary ethics because one is not a pro forma "journalist"
