Summary: In a Boston Herald column, Michael Graham repeated the falsehood that union autoworkers have "$78-per-hour jobs." In fact, the figure representing the hourly cost of labor to U.S. automakers -- a cost that GM puts at $69 -- includes not only current workers' hourly wages and benefits, such as health care and retirement, but also retirement and health-care benefits that U.S. automakers are providing for current retirees.

1. Michael Graham is the biggest asswipe on Boston Radio.

He does a weekday talk show on WTKK 96.9, with a full menu of RW bullshit and lies.

He is a carpetbagger from South Carolina that landed here a few years ago, and hasn't stopped bashing Massachusetts since he got here. He does nothing but whine and moan each weekday morning.

Now he's doing a column for the local fishwrap, the Herald.

Don't believe a word he says.
