AC: first off, I love the Roadhouse reference.
But I didn't read Lehigh's column as an attempt to make people like illegal immigration. Instead, I thought it was a devastating assessment of Severin's broader M.O. and WTKK's longtime tolerance of it--until now, that is. (It seems you and Lehigh are in agreement that this is really all about $$$.)
You're correct: Severin has every right to his opinions--and he can voice them loudly and proudly on Boston Common today if he'd like. What he *doesn't* have is a right to be paid by WTKK to disseminate them over the FM airwaves.
