In his "Media Blitz" column in today's Boston Metro, John Molori
really lays into WEEI's Gerry Callahan (read first item) for what he unabashedly calls "utter racism" -- in this case, when it comes to the hot button issue of immigration. Callahan is a talented sportswriter and talkmaster, but he does seem to suffer from Rush Limbaugh wannabee syndrome.
Frankly, plenty of political views -- the majority of them conservative -- slip through the microphone during 'EEI's broadcast day (although that's been more infrequent since
Teddy Sarandis lost his gig at the station.) But Callahan is the worst offender and a desire to avoid hearing his take on the current events of the day is one reason why I stopped listening the
'EEI Morning Show a few years ago.
