Bob Joseph cuts off legit concerns of Lourdes, one of the biggest advertisers on WNBF


Local News Sucks

Recommended Posts

We have a situation where both Broome County deaths of Coronavirus have been at Lourdes Hospital.  The family of one of the deceased have been on every TV station and in the newspaper with criticism of how Lourdes handled the treatment of their loved one, and the communication to the family.

A caller just called into Bob Joseph on WNBF to talk about the care at Lourdes, but Bob Joseph cut him right off.  Don't kid yourselves,  Lourdes/Ascension Health are one of the biggest paid advertisers on WNBF/Town Square Media.

What is allowed to be discussed on Bob Joseph's show is dictated by who advertises with his radio group.  Bob's show is bought and paid for.

For those with good AM reception I have a suggestion. WHAM-AM out of Rochester.

From 9 'til noon you can hear a guy not fence sitting, not censoring callers or guests. Not politically motivated other than believing in Constitution, 10 Commandments, the 20 Laws our United States are Founded on.

One of the good guys. (no sense going on with the nearly 20 years old arguments of white hat v black hat analogy. Some of you remember that one after the Attacks)

Pretty sure the guys name is Bob Lounsberry not Kenneth.

Even when cussin' him out I still like the guys views, mostly. And yes his show is as relevant to Broome County as to his home county.

I am asking you for the frequency of WHAM.

Dan Rather said he was asked "What is the frequency, Kenneth"  when he was accosted in a parking lot by 2 guys.

Now that is funny.

And you think I do not learn on here?

Reason does not matter but I was in a self imposed isolation for months. Just when I needed to get out and about again I find this virus thing puts a damper on movements. Damn life sucks at times. However, for now it is better than the alternative.

Oh fine. I heard the segment and thought Bob was significantly less than diplomatic in explaining that he didn't want his show turned into a Lourdes bashing session. He didn't have to jump down the guys throat like that. People have stories to tell. Those stories show a pattern of behavior.
