Pergament takes WBEN to task again...

...this time over not covering HRC's speech last Thursday. From http://talkintv.buffalonews.com/201...-terrific-graduation-story-wny-reality-star/:

With (WBEN's) heavily-promoted “Rally for America” featuring conservative Ann Coulter and the former Republican mayor of New York City, Rudy Giuliani, listeners know or have been reminded that the talk station has become a promotional arm of the Republicans. But its newscasts should cover important stories. I didn’t listen too long so the station might have eventually addressed Hillary Clinton’s blistering point-by-point attack on the presumptive Republican nominee. The top of the newscast Friday didn’t mention Clinton’s speech Thursday afternoon that even was praised by Republican analysts. It didn’t make the top five things that Western New Yorkers should know either, though the opening of the “Ninja Turtles” movie did.
 
Pergy should know that barking like a dog is not an important story.
 
The Rally for America was canceled because of sluggish ticket sales. Epic fail! I just have to laugh at all the hype. And people weren't interested or were, at least, unwilling to pay the ticket prices.
 
That's too funny. Tickets only went on sale two or three weeks ago, right? They WERE pricey at $35 and $50.
Bauerle must be heartbroken over this.
 
WBEN... where the hate just keeps on comin'.
 
So, WBEN couldn't sell the "Make America White Again" event.
Hate Mongering is WBENs bread & butter, but getting their
lemmings to pay top dollar was a pipe dream.

They could have called The Donald to buy up the tickets
and let Mexico foot the bill. They're paying for Donald's Wall anyway...
 
Don't listen then.

WBFO...afraid to report on a terrorist attack.

Not true. From the WBFO website:

Mass Shooting At Orlando Gay Nightclub: What We Know

A gunman carrying a handgun and an assault-style weapon opened fire at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Fla., early Sunday, killing at least 50 people and wounding at least 53 others.It is the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history.The death toll far exceeds initial estimates. Orlando Police Chief John Mina initially said "around 20" people succumbed to gunshot wounds inside the Pulse Orlando nightclub, but later said police found far more victims once they gained full access to the scene.
 
Facts mean nothing to folks like Dan.
WBEN tells him what to think and he laps up the swill.

WBFO is airing NPR coverage of the Orlando shooting...
