Reilly Attempting To Be A Factor In WEEI Flap



Massachusetts Attorney General Tom (Homeless) Reilly
is attempting to be a factor in the WEEI/METCO Flap.
He is interjecting himself into the dispute by calling
for a meeting with Entercom leadership(?) over their
future racial-sensitivity policies.  The full story is in 
today's (10/18) Boston Globe:

The Globe writer got a comment from WBZ's David Brudnoy,
who correctly states that TR really isn't a proper party to the issue;
radio stations come under the jurisdiction of the Feds.
David states that "language" on black-owned stations can
be just as provocative as the loony badinage aired on
D&C.  The only black-owned stations around here are
WILD-AM and WBOT-FM.  Neither has any locally-produced
talk shows, so such "language" must be the DJ talk and the content
of the recorded material I assume.
