New Broadcasting Experience

The company that I work for, Radio America, is moving out of DC. Why you might ask?....because they are destroying the building they are in now.

Although it is comical to point out to people that are trying to find the building I am in now...well I think a mini-script is in order on this one:

BURNS: Yeah, I'm on 15th and L Streets.

PERSON: Where is that?

BURNS: McPherson Square.

PERSON: OK, I'm on 15th, which building are you?

BURNS: I'm the building that looks like it's being demoed.

PERSON: OH! OK, I'm out front.

Anyway, I went over to our new building in the Ballston section of Arlington, Virginia today. So for those who, have been tracing my radio career since high school (and God bless you if you have) I have done the trifecta as far as this area is concerned. I have worked in broadcasting in the District of Columbia, Maryland and next month...Virginia.

It is the first time I have been apart of any station move to a new building, let alone a whole network. So this is a really geeky excitement for me.

It is a beautiful facility (of which I will be posting pictures soon) and I cannot wait until I move into the facility!

For the first....and probably the last time...

Back on March 30, Two teens in Virginia Beach, Va. were killed by a Drunk Driver. That drunk driver just happened to be an illegal immigrant. That fact had peaked the interest Fox News Channel "Host" and Resident Jake Bill O'Reilly.....who just happened to have Fox News Channel "Reporter" Geraldo Rivera.

Later, WVEC-TV reported that Tessa's Mother, Collete Tranchant, said "It was almost an insult to me and my family; that they would take something they would have a hotspot about and start fighting over this other issue.”

David Kunhardt, Alison’s father, said "To me, it dishonors our children."

To quote Keith Olberman, for the first...and probably the last time, Geraldo Rivera is...THE BEST PERSON IN THE WORLD!!!

---------------------------------------
And let's not forget that this is not the first time that Billo took a tragedy and made a political issue out of it.
