Ker-rack!
The crack MYL investigative team has done it again!!! Here's how it happened: in Chicago, political talkradio is sparse. Our cub reporter (CR) was in his car scanning the dial after the more progressive station went off the air at sundown and came across Michael Savage's show. Savage, as you may know, is sort of a male Ann Coulter without a trace of humor. Then he starts reading a commercial for a free vacation to Las Vegas. At no point does he name the sponsor but during the spot he says "maybe kick up some romantic magic..." CR recognizes that line! So he pulls over the car and calls the 800 number and asks "is this Tahitti Village?" Sure enough, it is! Tahitti Village pays money to advertise on Savage Nation, but doesn't want Savage saying their name on air! Those crazy marketers!
Coincidentally, Monz was on the road more than nomral today too: home for lunch after morning in cook county, afternoon all about getting paid. Sweet day, sweet lunch: hazelnut cranberry roll and some grainy stuff with an apple, from Whole Foods.
