6.29.17 Hero of the Day: Nate "Smitty" Smith


Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday, Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Friday on Chuck69.com.

-------
A SPECIAL HERO OF THE DAY!



Name: Nate "Smitty" Smith
Age: 41
Occupation: unemployed
Last Seen: Traverse City, MI
Awarded For: probably being the best rock radio jock and programmer in northern Michigan radio history

--
Northern Michigan rock radio and its troubled history has been bitchslapped again.

Yesterday, Nate Smith, aka "Smitty" at classic rock station 98.1/97.7 The Bear and modern rocker Rock 105/95-5 was fired from the Black Diamond stations. He never fully revealed his reason for dismissal, though there's speculation that it had to do with his ongoing feud with Tom Devitt at crosstown geezer rocker WKLT.

Smitty had been with the stations for ten years. Along with Ryan McTeague, the two hosted "The Afternoon Hangover" on The Bear and the show itself moved to what was then called Real Rock 105/95-5 in 2009. However, McTeague was let go and Smitty ended up flying solo. Smitty also hosted a Sunday night metal show called "The Asylum" and every year hosted a 12-hour Metallica-a-Thon on the stations.

Smitty was there during the good and the bad, especially the bad when Real Rock 105 dropped 95-5 and the "Real" from their name while 95.5 - which served the Grand Traverse area - flipped to elevator music. Thankfully, 95.5 flipped back to the simulcast earlier this year. Smitty, known for his ear for music was promoted to station Programming Director last year.

Since his firing, Smitty has received over 130 comments on his Facebook page from fans pissed that he was gone. I checked Rock 105/95-5's FB page and, well, they don't allow posts from others. But, I'll guess that many are now avoiding the station since his firing.

The sad thing is, in just one year, I've had two Facebook friends who've lost their jobs in radio and they're solid personalities. When I was a kid, I wanted to work in radio and one of my goals was the same as Smitty's: to rock northern Michigan radio HARD. Sadly, I learned that radio is a bitch of a business. The minute you say the wrong thing, you're now in the unemployment line, even if you have awesome ratings. Yet, the asshole across town whom nobody likes is still on the air because either he'll work for cheap or he's a kiss-ass to his advertisers like that overrated blob "Huge" Bill Simonson.

I hope that Smitty will land on his feet sooner or later, even though the radio business up north is a tough one. Where he'll end up is a mystery at this point, but judging by the love he's gotten on Facebook, I hope it's soon. I'll even admit, even though I'm in Grand Rapids in WGRD Country, I regularly listened to Smitty's show online. I loved his "The Box" and "The Radar" features. He added a lot of cool stuff to his show that people enjoyed and loved. He made it a better place for real rock fans up north and proved to all that not all northern Michigan rock fans like the same crappy 1970s butt rock songs over and over. I do hope that Rock 105/95-5 can survive post-Smitty.

But the sad thing is, it won't be the same.

6.27.17 Hero of the Day: Justine Kish


Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday, Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Friday on Chuck69.com.

-------
A SPECIAL HERO OF THE DAY!



Name: Justine Kish
Age: 29
Occupation: UFC fighter
Last Seen: ??
Awarded For: Kishing herself in the ring

--
Many years ago, I went to Spencer's Gifts in my local mall. There, I found a nice, yellow t-shirt with a 1950s style clip art of a woman with the caption "Girls Don't Poop".

Of course, I didn't buy the shirt, though it brought a small smile to my face.

For centuries, it seemed that girls and pooping were like mixing oil and water. Some girls claim that they don't poop or even fart ever. We've always associated women with beautiful aromas like expensive perfumes or pumpkin spice Yankee Candles. But sadly, women are just as human as us men and yes, they do poop. Hell, my ex-girlfriend would come over to my place and would poop with the door open. And yes, the scent was not all that pleasant.

But leave it to Russian UFC fighter Justine Kish to prove to the world that yes, women do poop, especially on national television in front of millions of people. On Saturday night, Kish was fighting in a strawweight championship match with Felice Herrig. Herrig held Kish in a rear naked chokehold when all the sudden, Kish tried to fight back by crapping her shorts. Her fecal stains were splattered on the floor of the ring for millions to see. And yes, that was poop. From a woman nonetheless.

Herrig won the match while poor Justine was left in the stink of defeat. But, Ms. Kish laughed it all off on Twitter. "I am a warrior, and I will never quit #ShitHappens haha be back soon," Ms. Kish stated.

Kish is not the first athlete to poop their shorts in a match. Early in his career, Stone Cold Steve Austin admitted that he crapped his shorts in a heavy wrestling match in Japan. Another MMA fighter, Thomas Wolford also made doody in his pants and his video now has over 13 million hits on YouTube. In the world of fighting, it might be best to poop before you fight, or at least wear Depends or Oops, I Crapped My Pants.

But ya gotta hand it to Justine Kish. Now that we know what her poop looks like, at least she still has some dignity. In her career, she's still 18-2 and still a tough competitor. Too bad she didn't sit on Herrig, or else she would have been 19-1.

Think of it: you can be #1 with your #2.

6.26.17 Bee-otch of the Day: Marci Turk


Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday, Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Friday on Chuck69.com.

-------



Name: Marci Turk
Age: 37
Occupation: COO, Howard Stern's channels on Sirius
Last Seen: New York City
Bee-otched For: being Tom Chiusano's lost daughter

--
Back in the day, the fights between Stern and his boss at K-Rock, Tom Chiusano were legendary.

During Stern's show, Tom would have a dump button on his desk in case he found something objectionable. Needless to say, Tom was the butt of many a joke on the Stern show, and it made for good ratings. Howard used to refer to him as "Tom Cheap-ass-ano" since the Stern show sounded like something you'd hear on a small town radio station due to the show's use of muddy, hissy tape cartridges.

After Howard moved to Sirius, Tom became an afterthought and has since retired from radio. For at least a few years, Howard's show sounded awesome with no censorship and no hassle from the FCC or corporate radio.

Then came Marci Turk.

For several years, Howard's channels were run by veteran radio programmer Tim Sabean, who was promoted to Senior Vice President of SiriusXM's comedy and entertainment channels. However, he was later let go from the company. Thankfully, he has his radio stations in Michigan's Upper Peninsula to fall back on. Now, Howard 100 and 101 are run by Marci Turk, who was a former employee of author David Allen, best known for his "Getting Things Done" technique. In his books, he explains that you need to get rid of people and things in your life that wreck your productivity.

Maybe that's why ever since she started running the Stern channels, so much has disappeared.

When Artie Lange was quietly taken off the show, he was never replaced. Even several longtime guests of the show like Gilbert Gottfried and Lisa Lampanelli have now been banned from the show. What might be the saddest of all is the fact that replays of classic shows are now heavily re-edited to remove references to things that might not be politically correct. For example, words that have been edited include "retard", "faggot" and others. Even long-time Wack Packers Gary the Retard is now known as "Gary the Conqueror" and Wendy the Retard is now "Wendy the Slow Adult".

Sadly, Marci's dicking with the Stern show is starting to piss off long0time listeners. A few weeks ago, he had the pop duo The Chainsmokers on his show. Mark Mercer, the owner of Stern fan site MarksFriggin.com admitted that he fell asleep during the interview simply because it was boring. Bear in mind that most of Stern's fans are way too old to give two shits about The Chainsmokers, a group whose fanbase is mostly girls under the age of 30.  Yes, Howard is getting more A-list stars to appear on his show, leaving the strippers and porn stars in the dust.

Hell, I was shocked a few weeks ago when he had country star Chris Stapleton on his show. Normally, he would mock country singers by playing Johnny Rebel's music instead. Years ago, he mocked Ellen Degeneres for crying on her show regarding a dog that didn't get along with her. Now, she's a frequent guest on his show.

Sadly, some of the interviews that Stern has are a turnoff. But, that's what Marci Turk wants: a Howard Stern that's more accepted by the audience that he alienated for years by alienating his long-time fans. Hell, Howard won't even attack her on the air, which is why some are fearing that he's selling out. It's a huge reason why a few years ago when I was having financial struggles, I decided to drop Sirius and listen to the show instead using *ahem* alternate sources. (Here's a hint: aaaaar.)

Look, Howard is 62 years old. Methinks that once his contract is up, he'll retire. Plus, who knows how Robin is doing health-wise since apparently, she hasn't been in the studio for a while again. True, I'd choose the Stern show over most morning radio shows in the country. Yes, Howard can say "fuck", "shit" and other words you can't use on the radio, but nonetheless, there's that aspect of it that's not as fun as it once was.

And you thought that Yoko Ono was bad.

6.22.17 Bee-otch of the Day: Donald Trump


Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday, Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Friday on Chuck69.com.

-------




Name: Donald Trump
Age: 71
Occupation: jackass
Last Seen: Washington, DC
Bee-otched For: seeing another one of his ideas fail

--
Drumpf's piss-poor ideas are DOA, just like somebody post-AHCA.

The new draft of the American Health Care Act was finally released to the public today and already, some are comparing it to the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare. But many Democrats are saying that it will do nothing but raise healthcare premiums and make things not affordable for the middle class.

Already, four Senate Repukes will be voting down the bill, including Ted Cruz and Rand Paul. They claim that the bill sounds too much like Obamacare. However, the bill would still allow those under 26 to stay on their parents healthcare plan. But the bill would also gradually defund Medicare and Planned Parenthood. It would also take $900 billion from Medicaid and fuck over those with pre-existing conditions.

The bill was under wraps for days in hopes of getting senate Repukes to vote yea on the bill, but now, they have a week until they want it passed and it's not looking good for Drumpf who kept saying that Obamacare is dead even though most Americans want it.

Look, America is becoming more and more progressive, yet the damn Democrats are practically Republican Lite, like John Ossoff, who lost the special Georgia election two days ago. This is also the reason why even though Hillary Clinton won the popular vote, she still lost over the fact that less-populated states simply didn't vote for her. The reality is, since most Americans are more and more to the left these days, and want better healthcare. Yet, it'll never happen as long as Repukes are running the show and Democrats acting very milquetoast these days.

The thing is, Obamacare IS the law and the only way Drumpfcare will pass is when the Repukes practically create a bill that destroys the ACA. Then what will happen is all the Repukes get voted out next election and Drumpf will be well beyond FUCKED.

Healthcare: it's a right for all humanity.... Except America and most lesser countries.

6.21.17 Bee-otch of the Day: WKLT


Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday, Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Friday on Chuck69.com.

-------




Name: WKLT
Age: 38
Occupation: shitty rock station
Last Seen: Traverse City, MI
Bee-otched For: entering a downward spiral

--
Last week, I gave WKLT the Bee-otch of the Day, and the floodgates opened.

Since that blog was published last Thursday, I've gotten several responses in regard to KLT and the shit they've been pulling. In case you missed it, Smitty, the afternoon jock at crosstown Rock 105/95-5 is now accusing KLT for ripping off segments of his show. Originally, Smitty was part of an afternoon duo on the station. KLT responded by creating "The Afternoon Trainwreck", which was also an afternoon duo. Since then, The Trainwreck has moved to mornings after the dismissal of longtime morning man Steve "Omelette" Normandin while Smitty now does his show solo. Smitty does a segment on his show called "The Box" where he plays songs that rarely get played on the radio anymore. Now, his competitor, KLT's Tom Dipshit-er, Devitt has been ripping him off with his own take called "The Bag".

Yeah, an Arab man whose last name sounds like a Don Martin sound effect in Mad Magazine stabbed a cop at Flint's Bishop Airport, the GOP wants to take away our healthcare and Michigan's water is in jeopardy because of Enbridge and Nestle. But living in a town with an absolutely shitty rock station is also a dire matter.

One of those who responded to KLT's BOTD was a former station employee who told me that since Omelette's dismissal, the station has been in a downward spiral. Shortly after the announcement was made that Omelette was let go, one of the station's advertisers, who spent $50,000 per year on spots pulled out. Not to mention that several long-time ad execs at the station and owner Northern Broadcast, Inc. all quit over the frustration of not being able to sell ads on the station.

Even though Nielsen no longer embargoes most ratings books for radio, Traverse City is a notable exception even though three out of the big five radio groups up north subscribe to the books. Then again, ratings can be misleading, especially in smaller markets like Traverse City that still use paper diaries instead of personal people meters. Ad revenue is how a station succeeds up north. Since KLT is losing money now, one can wonder on how long they can last during its current state.

Hell, even their advertising page on their website is a joke. Heritage Rock with 3-decades of market leadership with adult fans of 70s & 80s Classic Rock along with mainstream New Rock. Ummmmmm.... "New Rock"? I just checked their playlist and the newest song on the list was "Lie To Me" by Jonny Lang, which came out in 1997. How about "a whole bunch of shitty white trash rock best suited for the assholes who live out in Manceltucky?" Makes perfect sense.

Personally, KLT is now as useless as tits on a bull. Yeah, their shtick was OK back in the 1990s when they were practically the only rock station in town (and they DID play SOME new rock, though it was pretty much what the local CHRs were playing), but with Rock 105/95-5, The Bear, Q100, Sirius/XM, Pandora, Slacker and other services out there, who needs KLT? Apparently, people who don't mind hearing Foreigner, Styx, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Eagles, Boston and other other schlocky 1970s band that ever existed.

What might be even sadder is that according to one of my sources, the NBI/Blarney Castle deal fell through, which means that the Gokeys - who have owned KLT since 1983 - still own it, but they're phoning it in even more. Blarney Castle owns Q100 and had planned to merge that station's operations with KLT. Just imagine: no more Morning Trainwreck, Terri Ray or even Tom "RadioDudSTD" Devitt. But now, it's becoming less of a reality.

Oh, well. It's not 1995 anymore, and Rock 105/95-5 has bigger balls than they do.

6.20.17 Co-Bee-otches of the Day: The Republican Party and Steve Harvey


Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday, Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Friday on Chuck69.com.

-------




Name: The Republican Party
Age: 163
Occupation: right-winged pricks
Last Seen: Washington, DC
Bee-otched For: keeping secrets


Name: Broderick Steven Harvey
Age: 60
Occupation: too many
Last Seen: Los Angeles
Bee-otched For: dissing Flint


--
The Repukes want a bill passed that nobody knows about except them.

Of course, the outcome can't all be that good.

Within the next 10 days, they want the newly-revised American Health Care Act to pass. However, they won't show a draft until Thursday. However, many speculate that by 2026, the bill will reduce those with health insurance and even jobs. Many are hoping that several moderate Republicans will veto the bill, especially in the senate. Even a few Republicans are upset that they haven't had access to the bill that would killed the Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare.

But then, there's the Repukes here in Michigan, especially people like attorney general Bill Schuette.

Last week, the Michigan attorney general announced that several involved in the Flint water crisis will be charged for manslaughter since 16 people have died from drinking the water.

However, one person not charged was none other than the nerd himself, Rick Snyder.

As some of you know, when he was elected governor, Snyder assigned emergency managers to practically take over several towns, and Flint was one of them. Under his aegis, Flint switched its water supply from fresh Lake Huron to the polluted Flint River, which had been a dumping ground for Flint's factories for well over a century.

And that's allowed a certain comedian to make a joke in poor taste in regards to Flint's long-suffering residents.

On his radio show last week, Steve Harvey, pissed that his hometown Cleveland Cavaliers lost the NBA championship to the Golden State Warriors, dissed a caller from Flint who blasted the Cavs. Steve told the man "enjoy your brown glass of water". Needless to say, many are pissed that Harvey - who did a special show on the Flint water crisis on his Oprah wannabe daytime talk show last year - would ever piss off Flint, especially what's happened there.

So far, Harvey has said that the diss was only intended for the caller, and not the city of 102,000. Meanwhile, Flint's mayor, Karen Weaver has called Harvey's jab as something done in poor taste.

You know, this is what happens when Repukes get elected. The water gets polluted, we lose healthcare and a black comic with six TV shows disses a city that's struggled through a huge disaster for years. Ya know, why can't Shitty-er, Schuette charge the real villain, Snyder for all this? Oh, I know! BECAUSE HE'S AN ELITIST WHO WANTS TO RUN FOR GOVERNOR NEXT YEAR! Folks, we can't let this happen. We need to make Michigan blue again so our state can undo all the shit Snyder did.

As for Harvey, I think he owes Flint a sincere apology. He might not be able to do so because he's got way too many TV shows to host.

Maybe he'll apologize, but he ends up reading the wrong card.

6.19.17 Bee-otch of the Day: NBC


Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday, Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Friday on Chuck69.com.

-------




Name: The National Broadcasting Company
Age: 91
Occupation: media giant
Last Seen: New York City
Bee-otched For: still smacking their heads over Megyn Kelly


--
If there's any good news for the Peacock Network, it's the fact that there's only a few more months until football season begins.

In the most-recent Nielsen ratings book, the abortion known as Sunday Night With Megyn Kelly didn't even make it into the top 25. The week before, the show debuted at #10, though a repeat of 60 Minutes fared much better in the ratings.

The show has been quite controversial since its debut three weeks ago. Last week, Kelly interviewed tin foil hat-wearing talk radio host Alex Jones, who claimed that the government played a role in the Sandy Hook shootings. Outrage came from some of the family members of the victims of that horrific tragedy, who claimed that NBC was capitalizing off of their family's grief.

So what does Kelly do for last Sunday's show? Interview Jones again.

When news came about Sunday's show, one NBC affiliate, WVIT in Hartford chose not to air it. The reason was because Newtown is in their coverage area (even though it's part of the New York market) and felt that it would be too inappropriate and hurting for Newtown viewers. It's worth noting that WVIT and Newtown's intended NBC affiliate WNBC are both NBC O&Os.

What's sad is that NBC is paying this cunt around $20 million and yet nobody's tuning in to her sensationalist bullshit on Sunday nights. This has got to be the worst idea NBC has thought up of since the disaster known as The Jay Leno Show some years ago. Going after Fox News' asshole viewers only alienates their loyal viewers and yep! advertisers as well.

So how long will NBC handle Kelly's bullshit? Plus, how will her soon-to-be-debuting third hour of Today fare in the ratings? When it comes to watching her show vs. two lesbians duking it out on The Jerry Springer Show, I think Springer is far more intelligent.

I wonder if any NBC execs bought themselves some rope yet.

6.15.17 Bee-otch of the Day: WKLT


Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday, Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Friday on Chuck69.com.

-------


Name: WKLT
Age: 38
Occupation: shitty rock station
Last Seen: Traverse City, MI
Bee-otched For: having no original bone in their body



--
When I was a kid growing up in northern Michigan, I HATED KLT with the most severe of all passions.

It sickened me that kids in Detroit, Grand Rapids and other downstate towns had way better rock stations than me. Hell, sometimes I BEGGED my parents to take me to Detroit since I was too young for KLT and too old for 106.7 The Peak. Thankfully, The Zone came in 1998, but they spent its first two years on the air playing wuss music.

Yes, KLT was the lamest excuse for a rock station. It's owned by a family from North Dakota who only owns it for profit and the idiots who run it locally aim it towards the white trash losers who live up north. Of course, there's Terri Ray, who has been at KLT since 1984 and hosts the highly-predictable Meatless - er, I mean, Leetsville Cafe at noon, where the yokels who listen to the station can tell her to play the same shitty songs over and over.

Of course, there's too many reasons to hate KLT. Their morning show sucks and their afternoon host is a total dick who needs to be exposed. Tom Devitt has been at KLT for several years now and has worked for a few radio groups up north. As a matter of fact, he was the morning host at The Zone in the late 90s and his show was as lame as watching paint dry or waiting for the jurors of the Bill Cosby rape trial to make up their goddamned minds.

As I've mentioned a few times here and there, Devitt worked for several years at a crappy little station in Michigan's Thumb called 92.1 The Coyote. While there, he would pimp his shitty show called "Rabid Radio" on a popular message board that I used to frequent by hijacking threads with stupid messages like "how's Rabid Radio doing in the ratings?" or "I hear Rabid Radio is an awesome show", etc. His username, BTW was "radiostudtd", which was one of the worst usernames I've ever heard of. So, I outed him on this very website, back in the days when I didn't archive much. Needless to say, he sent me a nasty email talking about the fact that he had his own house, got laid once in a while, etc. Apparently, because of me, his bosses got word of his shenanigans and was almost canned. So, he wanted to get even with me and *allegedly* created several fake profiles on that message board and hijacked several of my threads. Even worse, the fellow posters got on his side, so I quit.

Since then, Dipshit has moved back to northern Michigan, namely the Petoskey area and worked at classic rocker The Bear for a while before coming to KLT where he was one of the co-hosts of their shitty Afternoon Trainwreck show. He also helps run their sister station, ESPN Up North 106.7/105.5 where he hosts a High School sports show.

But yes, Dimwit has shown time after time that he's anything but talented. Recently, Smitty. afternoon host at rival Rock 105/95-5 pointed out that Devitt's been ripping him off. Case in point? Listen now.

Needless to say, Smitty posted this on his Facebook page and Tom was nice enough to post on there that he was going to be coming to Traverse City (he does his show from Petoskey, apparently) to confront him. The message has since been deleted. But still, this battle is fun to watch.

You know, it's sad that Blarney Stone, which owns Q100 out of Grayling was supposed to own KLT and its sisters by now, and last I heard, the deal hit a snag since it's a three-way sale (106.7 should be going to Baraga Broadcasting). I'll betcha if Blarney Stone owned KLT outright by now, most of the airstaff would have been shown the door.

Personally, I wished northern Michigan had a station like Rock 105/95-5 20 years ago. KLT would be their bitch and quite frankly, they are today now that 95.5 is back to the simulcast. Now that Omelette is gone and their current morning show is even worse, IS there a reason to listen to KLT anymore? Let's not forget Sirius, Pandora and the rest.

KLT: sticking our heads in our asses since 1982.

Today, shots rang out in Washington. The targets were people who actually supported gun laws.

Five people, including Louisiana congressman Steve Scalise were shot at a baseball field while practicing for tomorrow's yearly charity game between Republicans and Democrats. The majority whip is in critical condition and is expected to survive. Scalise made headlines in 2014 when it was announced that he spoke at a KKK rally in 2002 and he didn't know about it.

The shooter was 66-year-old James Hodgkinson from Belleville, IL, whom many who knew him called a "passionate progressive". He often used social media, namely Facebook to vent about Drumpf and even told his readers that it was "time to destroy Trump and Co." and to "terminate the Republican party". He was a huge supporter of Bernie Sanders, who condemned today's attack by saying that violence had no place in today's society.

Hodgkinson had been living in his car just blocks away from the baseball field where he opened fire. Security opened fire back, killing him. Now, the FBI is looking into Hodgkinson's motives.

Scalise was the first congressman shot since Gabrielle Giffords in 2011. Since then, Giffords - who was left mentally disabled from the shooting - has been a supporter of stronger gun laws in America.

The sad thing is that what James Hodgkinson did was sickening. Most progressives are anti-gun, yet for some reason, he decided to put himself in the same category as the mullet-headed, tobacco-chewing, flannel-wearing white trash gun nuts that support the NRA. But who knows? He might have been just fighting fire with fire. There are such things as liberal terrorists. Just Google "Weather Underground" (not the weather website, but rather the militant leftists headed by Bill Ayers).

But in the end, our country is the most-violent in the world because of our moronic views on guns. There's more murders here than most other nations because of people who think that the Second Amendment is more important than the First Amendment.

So, I wonder if Scalise and other Repukes will realize that even their own are hunted? The answer is yes. Granted, most progressives don't go out shooting, but some may end up taking Hodgkinson's lead. If Scalise didn't have security, he'd be dead by now. The truth is, the Repukes did it to themselves. If they don't shape up, there will be more casualties.

They've been warned. But as long as the NRA is sucking their cocks, nothing will happen.

So, NBC, how's your attempt of transforming your news division into a Fox News Channel wannabe working out for ya?

Apparently, not good.

The Peacock Network should be holding their heads in shame over the fact that their overhyped Sunday Night With Megyn Kelly has been a ratings dud so far. Last week, the show got its ass handed to them in the ratings by a REPEAT of 60 Minutes. Yes, a repeat over a new show that had the skank ho interviewing Russian president Vladimir Putin.

But things, as it appears are getting worse.

I was watching America's Funniest Home Videos Sunday night when I decided to switch it over to NBC for a second. It was something far less intelligent than a man getting hit in the nuts with a baseball: Alex Jones blabbing his mouth off. I smacked my head against the table thinking that a psychopathic asshole like Jones would ever be considered news material, so I flipped it back to ABC.

Needless to say, many wanted to shoot the TV when Jones' face was taking up the screen.

During the interview, Jones claimed that the 2012 Sandy Hook massacre was a hoax and a government conspiracy. Twenty children and six teachers were murdered by Adam Lanza, a young man with mental issues. Since the interview, Kelly has been dropped from a benefit for Sandy Hook families and some of the families of children murdered at the school have been outraged at NBC for shining a light on the kooky talk radio host.

The tragedy is, is that soon, NBC will replace the third hour of Today, aka Today's Take with a crappy, yenta chat show hosted by Kelly. Really, NBC?

Look, NBC is asking for trouble by over-publicizing the fact that they're getting more conservative so parent Comcast can better urge our government for them to take control of the internet. In the end, it's not gonna work. Already, Megyn Kelly has shown that her Sunday night show is a complete abortion getting its ass handed to them in the ratings by reruns. The fact that Kelly put her little spotlight on a douchebag wackjob who lost custody of his kids because of his moronic views shows how low NBC has gotten.

Thanks, but RT, a network owned by the Russians is becoming more credible these days.
