In Reply To: "The fact that she was sitting next to one of the finer radio news reporters of our lifetime in Charles McCod an thought she was on the same professional level at him is not only laughable but also pathetic." That is your quote. If you live in the real world, how could you possible say that about Charles McCord. Good reader? Yeah, he's OK. But 'reporter'? When did he ever jostle with a crowd over any story? He is Imus' friend from way back. He's, I'm sure a nice guy who attends Bible study and breeds dogs, but he's not a reporter. He is a NEWS READER. He is not NEWS WRITER, A NEWS GATHERER, OR NEWS REPORTER. He is a crony who is on the payroll because he is IMUS' friend!!!! He's like that former thug cop, Diedle or Deedle, how ever you spell the name of that jack-booted goon who kisses Imus ass every Monday; a crony. If you actually 'live in the real world', your comments about McCord, again, a very nice person, do not reflect a true reality.
Message: Charles McCord is an award winning Radio JOURNALIST from his days at WFAA, WTOP & KICK. I don't deny that on the Imus in the Morning broadcast he is a news reader, but before you jump all ugly about the facts you should research them yourself. Charles McCord is one of the finer radio news reporters. I guess I am talking to a bunch of people who claim to be news folks, without knowing what news it. Before you try to show off how smart you are, please don't be a Brewer and just be a talking head.
