Could be. Which is why I wonder if they'll go to Glenn Beck (syndie),
though then again
they'd prob. want to keep it local.  But the fact that 'RKO doesn't
want to offend
listeners, sponsors, and certainly the Sox and Celts figures into it.

An ad sister station WEEI runs in papers shows the "desktop" of Larry Lucchino
of the Red Sox, and apparently a note is being written to Jason Wolfe:
"I thought
you were going to control these guys (Dennis and Callahan)..." That
connection...
(wouldn't want to make the Sox look bad, since 'RKO will be their flagship and
people might complain to the folks on Yawkey Way about what's going on
at Guest St.)...
