Quote This

"It's ordinary, average, and forgettable. Mindless, soulless, lowest common denominator stuff the media, including most cookie cutter morning radio shows, are saturated with -- vacuous interviews with celebrities hyping their latest projects, a steady stream of superficial celebrity news and Hollywood gossip clipped from the pages of People, Us, and The National Enquirer and read breathlessly with much manufactured enthusiasm and amazement by Ryan and his cohorts. This is sad stuff."

-Radio consultant Bill McMahon, properly pondering why Ryan Seacrest's radio show is on in 140 markets instead of local programming

I love the quote. So much packed in a small place. I have a lot to say about the state of the media and the vapid, mind numbing pabulum that oozes forth from the box. I will be doing a post about this too soon.

With the appropriate linkage, my good Hoff.

Been busy these last few days with more traffic at my little site than all the other years combined. That is in no small part to you, my friend. Why, even Skippy, the Bush Kangaroo has noticed my little corner of Blogtopia (and we know who gave us that word)

Thanks a bunch and keep it real.

(oh, by the way...as of Jan. 22, my blog is five years old. I guess this means I'm finally potty trained)
