I had a blast doing a screen test for Sly Stallone and being well paid for the original work and subsequent looping sessions. It got me my SAG card. I also played myself, the local Santa Barbara anchor, on the NBC daytime drama, "Santa Barbara". Robin Wright was about 18, and played "Kelly Capwell" on that show. She was gloriously beautiful then, as now. I still get quarterly residiuals from my union and am always delighted to know that video rentals in Indonesia have provided me with a nice lunch. BTW, "puerile" comes from the Latin word for boy, "puer". I'm not a boy. A better choice of words would have been "juvenile".christinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-54002974361393525592015-06-28T18:06:11.421-07:002015-06-28T18:06:11.421-07:00Thank you, Christine, for proving my point.

Let's stay locally. There has never been a weekday mon-fri woman talk host on a major local talk station in San Francisco. (Laura Schlessinger's schlocky psychobabble advice to the lovelorn doesn't count.) Therefore, the logic continues, I can't name one. That's true. In the search for "TRUTH", 4:25 asserts that women don't listen to women. That's factually correct because there are no women on the air to whom they can listen. I had an afternoon show on 50,000 watt KFBK when I was working my way through law school. The ratings went up a solid two points during my tenure, a good thing.

Can you cite an example of a woman who made it big coast-to-coast and prime time? No. So why is that?<br /><br />You know Christine - if I said "The sky is blue" you'd protest "Perhaps at times it's pink, you chauvinist"! <br /><br />Get real Christine and admit that no woman has ever made a big national name in talk radio because they would not have an audience (perhaps some day one will come along - not you). I stand corrected if you can provide an example (current or historical). <br /><br />The original comment was not meant as an attack on women - just an accurate observation.
