O'Connor and Aaron Cutler deliver a lively, well deserved punch in the nose to these powerful bloviators.

Rory O'Connor is one of the smartest media guys around... a devastating portrait of the avarice, cynicism, and psychopathology of one of the strangest media phenomena of our time: the shock jock.

Maddow in the Morning

Posted by roc on Jan 19 2009 | Shock Jocks

Air America has renewed Rachel Maddow’s contract and given her a new time slot — a single-hour radio show during morning drive.

“Rachel is a unique talent with an unlimited future,” said Air America CEO Bennett Zier in an email press release. “We are delighted that Air America remains her radio home.”

Maddow’s morning show will begin Feb. 2, as “The Ron Reagan Program” expands from one to three hours weekdays (from 6-9 p.m.,) where it will absorb Maddow’s current two hours in the Air America lineup.

“We’re elated with Maddow’s continued commitment to Air America,” said Air America senior vice president Bill Hess. “As millions of Americans now know, Rachel has become a breakout star and our affiliates and listeners will continue to benefit from her wit, intelligence and insight.”
