I'm actually pretty happy, I sometimes like to hate listen to wbal. I think it's important to get the other sides perspective here and there.

Most of the other folks on that station, while I vehemently disagree with them most of the time, I can at least see where they are coming from, and understand their arguments.

Kim was just a fucking idiot though. Get that shit off the airwaves.

A lot of people think 1090 is just the frequency of WBAL AM but it is actually the amount of IQ points you loose when listening to KK, Torey Snow, or C4.

I could not understand how they could have this kook on the air and pretend to be a new station.

Maybe for about 15 seconds. I don't think I have ever heard him make a single insightful statement.

We should care, these are the fascists. Or at least these are the the people the fascists are using as puppets. It’s fucking obvious for any thinking person. There was a great piece in The Atlantic recently about the Philippines that discussed how media can be used for disinformation to bring these types of people up.

Also see Rwanda circa 1994 and Bosnia circa 1995. This is not far-fetched. It’s minimized when people call it grifting, this is how evil happens, and I use that word as an atheist.

C4 says good things for 2 minutes and then trash the other 58. I love how much history he knows and how much knowledge he has of the city and its happenings. But he funnels it all through his garbage filter and out come some of the dumbest things you could say. I get where he’s coming from and he seems like the type of person who could be swayed back to normalcy with some extended time with the folks he disparages, but mostly I just smh at him when I hear him.

Good. Maybe they will swing back towards center. Like it or not they are the news radio station of record for Baltimore and they should (IMHO) try to maintain some sense of balance.

Her takes were utterly horrendous, and that's saying something given the usual drivel on that radio station. Snow is another one in particular that needs to go.

If you live in Kweisi Mfume's district you definitely know her because the Republicans spent 5 million dollars carpet-bombing the streets with pictures of her face just to lose the election 9:1

Agree. C4 and Brian are great. Kim and Snow are trash, not because they are further right but because they have weak talking points and no depth in their analysis.

Honestly I think he understands and plays that role on purpose. There’s a particular audience they need to hold onto unless they want to finally admit they need to pivot to more of a center lean or dare I say center left to grow their audience. C4 is an even minded person imo and he brings that historical calmness you need.

My only faults is he’s not as good as he thinks he is on fiscal issues and sometimes I feel like he pulls back and plays dumb to not offend that northeast/eastern shore crowd.

Just means they are usually the biggest News/Talk station in the market, generally respected, they carry public announcements, national broadcasts, etc. In Baltimore they have the biggest listenership in their format. Kind of like being the Washington Post of local radio.

I thought I was the only one who thought this of Torrey. He strikes me as someone who thinks he’s always the smartest guy in the room. Often times he is very blinded by his ultra conservative, Christian tendencies.

Not really. The Washington Post dominates the market for newspapers in there area. WBAL may be number one by a nose, but it doesn't have anywhere near the market share. That's why I was a little taken aback by the term.
