1. Hey, I just posted before you did asking this very question.

2. Are you still around?

I have some questions about her if you are.

3. Sorry for the delay

I got hung up on searching for some Thai recipes on the net!

Arnie had her own show up in New Hampshire - WNTK radio. But i can't find her on their list of personalities.

4. Thanks.

She's got a good radio voice and has some decent guests. But she allows criticisms of Cynthia McKinney to go unchecked (the guest accused McKinney of "throwing a cell phone" at a cop) and she doesn't know how to handle callers who are so steeped in RW propanganda ("we went to Iraq because of 9/11) that they can't think.

5. I didn't hear that about McKinney

Not good if she doesn't check people like that. I'm so used to Randi dealing with people swiftly. Arnie needs to get a clue.

6. Yeah, I think she is trying hard to be more centrist

She explained that she had an eclectic audience. It understand she is trying to widen the tent, but factual inaccuracies have to be corrected immediately.
