You know why Ron Reagan doesn't have his own show?
Edited on Mon Apr-10-06 07:04 PM by MSgt213
On any network. He tells it like it is and doesn't suck up to anyone. He could have easily used his family name and sold out, but he hasn't. I know some on this board can show how wrong I'm am, but I have been watching Ron on Hard suck Balls lately and I'm just impressed at how much of a grasp he has of the goings on of the day. Am I missing something?

8. Ron's show was on weekdays, though. I don't understand why
that would affect Maury and Connie.

3. Because .....
He tells it like it is and doesn't suck up to anyone.

what you are missing is who would be hiring him.....the networks/Cables are corporate owned...and don't like "loose cannons" as "they" like to call those who can't be controlled.

10. He had a late night talk show for a short while, on Fox, of all places.

14. Minimum IQ Required For Softball...
Someone with an IQ above 50 would look good on Softball, especially when put next to Tweety.

But someone like Ron stands out even more, because he's one of the only people on that show with any guts to say it like it is.

If the media had any liberal bias, he would still have a show, and not have to share it with a retard like the last blonde bimbo he was with.

19. No way is Ron boring!!!!
I've never heard him "off" at all on anything he's discussing either.

He doesn't use talking points. He's a natural!

17. You can listen to Ron Tuesday's and Thursday's....
on KIRO710 here:

http://kiro710.com/showdj.asp?DJID=31725


He co-hosts a talk radio show here in Seattle. His co-host is a major dweeb, but Ron is cool and does a great job.

The show is 9am-noon, Pacific time.


:woohoo:

18. I think Ron is great!
I've written to MSNBC requesting them to shit-can Bow-Tie Boy, Throaty McGruffy, and Tweety, and to give Ron his OWN show. How he put up with Monica, I have no idea. It must have been torture for him. Goes to show "Beauty is only skin deep". She is very attractive on the outside...yet, a monster on the inside. Go Ron!

21. If he will denounce his liberalism and become a conservative....
he can become a sensation on radio and TV....He's just on the "wrong side"

26. It may also be that he's the son of their IDOL and yet disagrees with them
You make a good point -- on MSNBC alone, it's a wonder that Tweety, Scarborough, Bowtie Carlson, and Rita Cosby have their own shows, yet Keith Olbermann is the ONLY voice of sanity. Why not give Ron Reagan a show before Carlson or Cosby?

As for his father, do you remember how AWFUL Stephen Baldwin was to him in an outdoor segment during the 2004 campaigns? He practically invoked Reagan Sr. and implied that God had spoken to him (Baldwin) and indicated that Ron would be forgiven for past transgressions. Then something like "May the Lord be with you," to which Reagan responded, "Well, and peace of the Buddha to you, too." It was perfect.
