Funny you should mention that. I was thinking that the removal of
McCarthy/Vigue from WRKO eliminated two of the three non-syndicated women on
talk radio in Boston, the other being Marg Eagan. Although, Rachel Cohen and
Virginia Buckingham are editorial editors at the Boston Herald and there are
a lot of editors and columnists who are female the Herald and CNC.
