Michael Graham's Campaign Training Event Thing Shindig

Red Mass Group is streaming Michael Graham's campaign training event live.

WTKK host tossed in the pokey on traffic charges

Michael Graham charged with running red light, driving with a revoked license in Framingham, according to Jessica Heslam, who also posts Graham's statement on how it's all Rachel Kaprelian's fault, because under her command, the Registry no longer sends out notices of revocation, and he didn't know.

Innocent, etc.

The Michael Graham experience

Cranky adds Graham to his growing list of Things that Suck:

... This guy Michael Graham they have on now is completely unlistenable. He sounds like a moron. Standard anti-liberal boilerplate. Like some dumb loud fratboy who knows nothing, but has an opinion on everything. His callers sound far from the "best and brightest" that Jay claimed his to be. Honestly I can't say more about his show than that, because, like Rita Cosby, I can barely stand to listen to his voice for two minutes. He was fired from his last gig, supposedly over some controversy, but more likely just because he sucked. ...

When it comes to right-wing talk show hosts, better the devil you know ...

Dan comes to that conclusion after listening to Jay Severin replacement Michael Graham on WTKK (whose first priority is apparently to hire hookers and bums to re-start the Boston Veterans Day parade):

... During the past couple of days I've spent several minutes that felt like hours listening to Graham. My snap judgment -- subject to change, of course -- is that he may be among the most unlistenable hosts it's ever been my displeasure to hear. I didn't like Jay Severin, whom Graham replaced; yet Graham comes up considerably short of Severin. ...

No, but wait, he can't be that bad, can he? He's so bad he forces Dan to support Herald columnist Joe Fitzgerald against some Graham tirade - and Kennedy has never liked Fitzgerald (Joe Fitzgerald is not to be confused with Herald business reporter Jay Fitzgerald, who dug up another novel way Graham got himself fired).

Jay Severin's replacement on WTKK

The Herald reports that WTKK has replaced non-Pulitzer-winning talk-show host Jay Severin with Michael Graham. Or, as Dan puts it:

WTKK Radio (96.9 FM) has replaced trash-talking, Muslim-bashing afternoon-drive-time host Jay Severin with trash-talking, Muslim-bashing afternoon-drive-time host Michael Graham.

Michael himself puts it this way:

Starting today, the Michael Graham Experience officially arrives at 96.9 FM WTKK in Boston, MA. All I can say is, somebody better buy Ted Kennedy a drink. Quick.

Such refreshing and original irreverence! Why, Howie Carr probably doesn't make a joke like that more than, oh, five or six times a day.
