WOWK hires from phony rightwing media institute
the leadership institute, as you know, is the same outfit where phony journalist 'jeff gannon' got his credentials to get into the white house. ed schulz called them on the air the other day and learned that they place rightwingers in media across the country. WOWK puts ads on their site.

it cost $50 to attend a 3 hour class and get credentialed This is how Talon News was born

WOWK, of course, is also the home of mary dayton-a rightwinger who frequently appears oon the homophobic tom roten show, and spencer adkins, who subs for roten. WOWK also does the updates for wvhu's rightwing programming

1. I say out them all ...
it almost approaches being a racket

(seems, also, a form of discrimination)

2. Re: "spencer adkins"
Sphincter Adkins just struck me as a total Reich-Winger, the very first time he lied to me, about the weather! The next clue was all those cornball,(bush-like)unfunny jokes of his! With a name like Sphincter Adkins he's got to be a natural born bunghole!

I believe the entire crew there at WOWK are part of the evil neo-terra-ist group, "Bungholes for Bozos"!(Bu$hbots) That nerdish guy who is the head stick there at Eye-Witless news, is a total GOPer drone and a rabid, drooling, Rovebot! That guy is even all cozy with the mega-EVIL Don Blankenship on camera!(always sucking up to the "War pResident" or some other rotten sticky fingered rogue)

Yes...WOWK was sucking up to Bu$h every time he came to West Virginia in 2004, providing the GOPers with free and full coverage, of every one of shrub's dog and chimpy shows! They(WOWK)gave Senator John Kerry a grand total of about five minutes free airtime during the entire campaign! The golden chimp and his dronish worshipers were on my TV set blathering on endlessly, on WOWK, almost every time I tuned in during campaign(of lies)2004! So I finally swore off...(and I swore often)

All that sucking up being constantly done at WOKK's Eye-Witless news...SUCKS far beyond any form of redemption IMHO! I have officially put WOWK on IGNORE here at the ranch! And Sphincter, I don't care if it snows oats, I won't ever laugh at one of your stupid, corny jokes! Oh yes and Sphincter...PLEASE get yourself a damned Beatle wig and cover up that Bozo hair-do!

3. Sphincter Adkins is a substitute host for Tom Rotton
on Huntington's rightwing radio station. As is Mark Dayton.

5. I knew Sphincter lied like a Damned GOPer!
I've quit watching WOWK!

Sphincter is a complete A$$HOLE!

Whoever writes Sphincter's jokes for him is a real idiot! Must be that BRAY"Like a Jackass"Cary dude, who calls all the shots for everyone at WOWK! What an A$$ kisser! Might as well just go ahead and watch FOX slobber and drool over the Chief Chicken-hawk! Bray Carry even sucked up to the EVIL Don Blankenship on TV! I've had it with that bunch! I'm tuning that channel out, like I have the freeloading preachers on the churchie channel!

WHERE DO THEY GET THESE GEEKS?

6. where do they get them?
from the same place the white house found jeff gannon, the leadership institute


it's funny that even though 8 and 11 are sinclair owned, they're nowhere near as bad as wowk (mark hyman commentaries aside). but i'll stick with wsaz, they have their flaws, but they at least try for the most part to be a legitimate news organization.

7. Pod People???
They have gotten worse since Tom left! A total lush is far better than a drooling mindless Rovebot! They got no class at all anymore at WOWK! Football is about the only thing fit to watch on the major networks now! Once Dan Rather punches out for the last time I'll never watch CBS again, until they broadcast football again in the fall!
