Local columnist gets more time to devote to his writing

He's going the Jay Severin route of self syndication! Howie and some guy with a fax machine and a company called Global Media are starting his own network amongst the podunk stations in the all white parts of New England that broadcast his racist invective to an ever shrinking audience of geriatrics who remember when blacks knew their place. RKO, sick of Howie complaining about Entercom and Howie's constant thieving of paper towels and toilet paper, bounced his fat ass when he wouldn't allow them any control over his show.

Basically, Howie was convinced by some hustler that he's a real name in talk radio, but for some reason he still has to schlep his picture books of sociopaths to ice cream shops and liquor stores all over New England, while Mike Barnicle is playing golf with Colin Powell and Larry David.

Maybe if everyone says his name three times in a row he will disappear?

Pity poor WRKO. Maybe the knuckle scraping demo has finally succumbed to Scratch Ticket Dust Lung disease and can't support Howie's creative writing life any further.

Don't let the door hit him, and all that.

to be made sport of!

But on a serious note, how will I know about EBT fraud? The horrors of immigration? The goings on of Cadillac Deval?

Also, the guy who's been filling in for him this week is terrible.

How am I supposed to know what radio station NOT to listen to now. 680 was easy. Now I may stumble upon the old fat entitled why won't he retire phony not a regular guy cause he lives in Wellesley saying the word moonbat over and over as if means something terrible Boston accented turd face accidentally when my Satellite radio is turned to the AM dial because I forget how the switches work because why else would anyone ever listen to a radio band that comes in mono and sounds like a WWII era radio frequency?

ANSWER ME DAMN IT!

The jealousy here is palpable but Howie will be just fine. As a NY Times best-selling author, Radio Hall of Famer and shrewd investor, he only works these days for fun. Was he "granted a leave of absence" or did his contract, that he has long said he wouldn't renew with WRKO, expire as reported? Those who participated in or overlooked Democrat corruption in this state for decades shouldn't rest yet. Like him or loathe him, it was Carr who exposed the rampant corruption during the Dukakis and Patrick administrations, plus the hijinks of Billy Bulger, Charlie Flaherty, Tom Finneran, Sal DiMasi, Bob DeLeo and so many others in lesser federal, state and local government agencies. He deserves our thanks.

There was no love lost between them, based on Carr's suit against him that Carr claimed paid for his wife's vacation house, but he went way overboard in one of his columns about Don Imus when he said that Imus wouldn't live to see his son grow up.That was nasty.

When Christopher Lydon had his morning shows on WBUR, Carr would make appearances on the air occasionally. There seemed to be an incongruous mutual admiration there.

Will he have to give his payola wagon car back to Herb Chambers? And will he be forced to finally reveal what actually happened the night he "hit that tree" in Burlington?
