Of course that's who it was!  The incident is all over the D&M newsgroups.  It's
hard to say how this affects their efforts to get affiliates to pay big bucks to
WW1 in syndication fees, though.  Savage was a dope to take the bait, but MSNBC
finds an easy way out, GLAAD can claim victory and Savage's new San Fran
flagship gets some free publicity.  Everybody wins.

Take care,
