i think its super obvious to people like us when the station is hosting an infomercial. i change channels right away. but, especially with older folks, they cant tell the difference and may get suckered in to whatever crap the host/program is pushing. and i think it knocks the credibility of the news/talk station airing it.

Drat, that shatters my radio beliefs. I thought all those talk shows on KCEO and KBCQ on the weekend were nuttin' but the truth.

Where's Victor when we really need him. I miss his fun and programming.

Drat, Stay Tuned.<P ID="signature">______________

Wrong error.

Pay attention, Porky.

The UT reported that KPBS "reacted instead to Wisdom's firing from "Marketplace," a National Public Radio business show that is carried on stations across the country."

The UT did not report that Marketplace is an infomerical. Get your facts straight if you are going to call them fishwrap.

There is a U-T error here, but NOT the one you cite. The UT should have reported that Marketplace is an American Public Media program, not NPR.<P ID="edit"><FONT class="small">Edited by zumahans1 on 07/13/05 03:49 PM.</FONT></P>
