KNBR all but forgot about the 49ers this week --with the exception of the post mortem Monday, it's been all SF Giants. ALL. The 49ers, KNBR's second fiddle to the 'Gints, have all but disappeared this week from the KNBR domain with the exception of some obscure player's shows (xxxxx)Just wait until baseball season is over and The Bleeder has no pro basketball team to chat about --OMG, they'll actually have to be creative!
*Charlie Rose was interviewing Bono on his PBS interview show --I watched it at midnight and that's the only thing I watch on KQED. What else is worth watching? Now send 99 dollars and get a 12-pack CD of the London Symphony.
*Yes, the vast Larry Baer media politburo has many tentacles stretching from KNBR to Comcast Sports Net Bay Area to NBC with City Hall tossed in as an appetizer. I'm still waiting for the Chronicle and its illustrious new Editor-In-Chief to write about Baer's adventures that have nothing to do with sports and are quite spicy but she's got a Giants cap on all the time so that ain't never gonna happen. Wonder what Herb Caen would think. Paging Matier and Ross.
*Audrey Cooper: A legend in her own mind.
*The Chronicle's idea of hard-hitting journalism involves Michael Bauer breaking down the salad lettuce at Jardinaire.

| Alicia Reed |
*Another hard-hitting Big Mac subject matter that the Chronicle ignores is the mass political corruption involving construction of the Central Subway. Again, paging Matier and Ross. For starters, guys, make a call to Diane Feinstein's hubby, Dick Blum. That's just for starters. And then call Willie Brown, your esteemed columnist. Oh, I forgot....

| Willie Brown |
*While the mainstream SF Media (Chronicle, TV stations) went complete ga-ga and lavished praise on Rose Pak (the Chinatown political consultant who died Sunday) for her prestige and prominence in the city-- gone was any mention of Pak's numerous political payoffs, corruption and questionable influence over some of the town's biggest pols, past and present, like, say, yes, Willie Brown.

*That Radnich guy has been doing, for the first time ever, real-estate commercials because he's about to lose his "Buster Brown" gig.

| Gary Radnich is doing radio commercials on KNBR |
Gary's gotta pay for that Ass somehow.
ReplyDeleteBrown does have a scandal, just look at his involvement with Lennar and the Concord Naval Weapons Station Development, but no one seems to care...
ReplyDeleteHere's an idea, make Regina King get a job...
ReplyDeleteSadnich doing commercials!? Wow. Might he now face the "indignity" of wearing a tie on air too? Might he start showing up at games for the first time in years? Incredible.
ReplyDeleteTie won't be possible. He can't button the top of his shirt around that fat red neck.
DeleteI for one couldn't stand Rose Pak. She was a dragon lady and good riddance!
ReplyDeleteMaybe used Bentley Guy can hook up with Da Mayor again. Talk about a cash grab.
ReplyDeleteAlecia Reid is a truly underrated and underused talent. She does an outstanding job whenever she gets to anchor. And they don't have her anchor very often.
ReplyDeleteShe has it all over JR Stone,but Stone must be higher level cult member or male. Pero isn't going by quality.
DeleteI heard Gary Radnich doing a commercial for some small town mortgage company over the weekend.
ReplyDeleteRadnich is the same guy who used to boast how he would never give in to doing commercials.
Apparently it was below his ethical standards.
The biggest phony ever to step inside the studios of KNBR.
Jeez. I think Alicia Reed should consider a new hair style. Bangs would be a good start.
ReplyDeleteWhen KQED start fundraising drives, they should provide an open balance sheet and an income statement to the public. Those of us who give should be allowed to know how the monies are spent.
ReplyDeletewatch out for multiple commerecials before ''sportsphone'' finally gets started after the games. u get lulled into listening and realize u just listened to a ''crush of commercials''.
ReplyDeleteKRON casualties countdown has officially commenced...but they're doing it in the dark as the lights are out according to a local blog.hahahhahahha
ReplyDeleteThe Chronicle was a second rate newspaper even before it completely descended into being the Comical.
ReplyDeleteThe parade of public figures tripping over themselves to kiss Pak's ass after her arrival back from China (with a harvested organ no doubt) was one of the most nauseating displays ever seen in SF. And that's saying something.
Another KRON secret revealed: Dave Sparr? is actually Darya in Drag. Using modern scientific..uh,stuff, We were able to superimpose Sparr's face on Darya's body- bingo!..exactly the same.
ReplyDeleteDave is Darya....
Gary will eventually be just like that crazy old Yenta Jan Wahl who didn't save her $$$ and has had to resort to doing endless radio ads while doing whatever piddly segments KRON would let her do for less than a hundo a week to be able to say she's still on TV. It's amazing Gary has been able to keep the act going for this long considering how stale it's gotten and how little he obviously cares about all of it anymore. But new wives and used Bentleys cost lots of scratch.
ReplyDeleteEven older folks who used to be loyal newspaper readers finally got smart and stopped subscribing to the Comical. Fire Audrey already!
ReplyDeleteI now kneel before watching any KRON newscast or when I listen to KNBR....
