Because Rush, Sean, Laura, Michael et al TOLD YOU TO BE? Jack S Margolis, lefty Joe Pyne, righty First hand report from Reality Radio Long story short: 1965 - 1967 I was the Program Director at the country's first 24/7 telephone call-in radio station, KLAC in Los Angeles. It was a double barreled hoot. The dreaded Fairness Doctrine was in full force. Results? Right wing talk was crushed? Noooo . We had Bob Grant spewing the precursor mud of Michael Savage and Sean Hannity . We had Joe Pyne , doing confrontational blitzing that makes Rush Limbaugh look like a wimp. We had Ray Briem , a calm, hard-right, all-night talker. These guys were tough, uncompromising Righties , and nothing in the Fairness Doctrine shut them up or even inhibited them. AND we had left-wing talkers, including the hilarious Arbogast (Bob) and Margolis (Jack) and the stunning Jill (daughter of Dore) Schary Robinson doing passionate left wing and feminist talk on the weekends.
