Ben Franklin and a Free Press: You Can’t Please All of the People All of the Time

Hate Mail: The 1,776 “I Will Never Listen Again” Note

Mandeville, LA - After 22 years in radio and hundreds of "you'll never work in this business again" threats from alleged "faithful listeners" I continue to be amazed at the number of people who believe that radio show hosts MUST entertain every holier than me crackpot with a cell-phone's opinion, in full.
