Jeff Katz is Fired From WBT and the People Rejoice

Jeff Katz is no longer the 3pm-6pm host of the WBT afternoon show. Mr. Katz was a polarizing figure ever since his arrival in Charlotte, NC a couple of years ago. His brand of hate politics will not be missed by me or a large segment of the Charlotte region. Hats off to the management of WBT.

Tara Servatius Named
New Afternoon Host at WBT AM & FM

Charlotte, NC (December 1, 2008): Greater Media announces Tara Servatius has been named the new Monday through Friday, 3pm – 6pm afternoon drive on-air host at WBT AM & FM in Charlotte, North Carolina. She will begin her new on-air duties on Monday, December 8th, 2008.

Servatius has been the host of The Tara Servatius Show on weekdays from 9pm to midnight on NewsTalk1110 WBT. The program is a mixture of local and national commentary, interviews and forensic journalism from the perspective of a life-long Charlottean.

She has won more than two dozen state and national journalism awards for column writing and investigative reporting while she was a reporter in the Charlotte market for The Leader and Creative Loafing newspapers. Among her most recent was a first place news enterprise reporting award from the North Carolina Press Association about the weaknesses in Charlotte’s overburdened court system. Servatius also recently won a national first place award for column writing from The Society of Professional Journalists. The Charlotte native is a graduate of Charlotte Catholic High School and UNC Chapel Hill’s School of Journalism.

“Tara has increasingly proven to be a superstar in waiting,” said Greater Media Charlotte Vice President and Market Manager Rick Jackson. “Her show is less about politics and more about a journalistic view of how local government operates. She’s a brilliant investigative reporter and effectively constructs her views based on real case studies and supporting data.”

Rick Jackson and WBT Program Director Bill White will be on air Tuesday, December 2nd at 3pm to discuss the programming change and answer listener questions.

WBT AM & FM is owned by Greater Media Charlotte, Inc., and is a subsidiary of Greater Media, Inc., the parent company of 23 AM and FM radio stations in the Boston, Charlotte, Detroit, New Jersey and Philadelphia markets.

US Secret Service Blames Sarah Palin for Death Threats Against President Elect Obama

According to an article in the conservative paper the London Telegraph, Sarah Palin’s hateful rhetoric is being blamed for a huge increase in the number of death threats against the president elect.

“The Secret Service warned the Obama family in mid October that they had seen a dramatic increase in the number of threats against the Democratic candidate, coinciding with Mrs Palin’s attacks.”

There have been two assassination attempts broken up and various death threats, the majority being in the white supremacist community.

“Details of the spike in threats to Mr Obama come as a report last week by security and intelligence analysts Stratfor, warned that he is a high risk target for racist gunmen. It concluded: “Two plots to assassinate Obama were broken up during the campaign season, and several more remain under investigation. We would expect federal authorities to uncover many more plots to attack the president that have been hatched by white supremacist ideologues.”

Many believe this may have caused permanent damage to Sarah Palin’s reputation and may hurt any future attempts at a political run.

“Irate John McCain aides, who blame Mrs Palin for losing the election, claim Mrs Palin took it upon herself to question Mr Obama’s patriotism, before the line of attack had been cleared by Mr McCain.”

LANDSLIDE

The people have spoken loud and clear. Change is coming. Barack Obama is the next president of the United States of America. Joe Biden is the next Vice President of the United States. He has won by over double the electoral votes needed and by a margin not seen since LBJ. He also won the states in the deep south that will probably change the political landscape forever for the better. Its time for all Americans to pull together. We rise and fall as one nation, together. Democrats and Republicans.

PROOF that even John McCain hates President Bush

A librarian shows up at a public John McCain Rally on city property and is promptly issued a citation for trespassing by police and is escorted off the premises for simply carrying a sign that says “McCain = Bush”. Who says John McCain doesn’t support the right to free speech ?

Why The Republican Party Died In 2008

There are several reasons the Republican Party died in 2008. I’ll explain several I am sure of. If you can add some insight to the reasons, please feel free to add your comments.

One of the groups that took over the Republican Party were anti-abortion religious fanatics that have turned the Republican Party into a religion instead of a conservative movement. When your base is the Christian Taliban your probably not going to get any crossover votes.

We didn’t catch or kill Osama Bin Laden and lost the war against al-Qaeda and got into a unjust war with Iraq that has taken the lives of 4100+ American soldiers and 500,000+ Iraq civilians and 7 years later there is no end in sight.

Secret prisons and POW torture at the behest of the United States Government. People imprisoned for years without being charged with any crime. Violating the Geneva Convention with permission from the Republican President of said United States.

Sending our jobs overseas. Giving tax breaks to corporations that send our jobs overseas. Giving tax breaks to the rich. Seeing the only jobs being created are at Wal-Mart and McDonalds.

Trillion Dollar deficits and the largest expansion of the government since the New Deal.

Right-Wing Nuts spewing hate and lies daily over the airwaves about Democrats that are over 50% of the population. Its pretty tough to tell lies these days when the truth is just a mouse click away.

Allowing government departments to spy on US citizens phones calls and electronic data without a search warrant and call it Homeland Security.

Attacking immigrants, gay people, minorities especially Muslims and pretending that as a group they are not important and don’t count and don’t deserve a place as Americans.

Now the Republican Party is pretty much dead and delegated to south and losing ground there. Young people just don’t join the Republican Party anymore. Hate mongers and war mongers are not cool. Killing innocent civilians and shredding the Constitution isn’t cool either. Now its time for the Republican Party to curl up and die or get rid of the pollution that has poisoned it. I believe its dead and I won’t shed a tear.
