Jay Severin, Boston RW Talk Show Hack, Is AFRAID of Air America!
Edited on Tue Mar-30-04 09:51 AM by RationalRose
I'm sure Randi Rhodes will end up kicking this guys ASS in the 3-7 pm slot, once Air America gets to Boston. Severin is the guy who uses terms like 'wetback' and 'towelhead' to describe certain ethnic groups. He is a hatemonger extraordinaire. Here is an article by him in the Boston Globe:

http://www.boston.com/news/globe/editorial_opinion/oped/articles/2004/03/30/liberal_talk_radio_no_one_will_buy_it/

Just a snippet:

"Yes, we know you believe with utmost sincerity that we are monstrous Neanderthals, but do you really believe your left-wing/pacifist/United Nations/French worldview will win a big middle-class audience? In America?"

:wtf:

He actually said:

"But take another look at that map. The death knell you see lurking is audience demographics (i.e. it's the economy, stupid). Red (Bush) vs. Blue (Gore) is a distinction of ideology, but it is also, as frankly we know, essentially a division of social class, race, and income. The red audience is largely suburban, college educated, professional, middle class; the blue (potential) audience more urban, less well educated, lower income. And this difference will matter infinitely more in the radio booth than the voting booth."

Other than the obviously coded racial remarks, he seems to have forgotten that most studies show that college educated people are mostly liberal. While he is correct about suburbanites, most of the red states were places like Kansas and other states in the Midwest where there are probably as many sheep as there are people.
