Lou Dobbs

How are his ratings on WOR? Is he really that untouchable that David Paterson can't bump his show?

IIRC USRN, the syndicator, pays WOR to carry the show....

It's not all that uncommon for syndicators to give network compensation to the top market affiliates. This is somewhat like the TV affiliations of old... major markets got paid big money by the net, while small markets got the shows/affiliation for free in exchange for carrying the commercials.
 
And I believe that's the same method that Glenn Beck and, I think, Dennis Miller - both WOR castoffs - used to get cleared in New York.
