Diane Rehm

An Email:

I've been a paying member of your public radio station for many years. What is with this Diane Rehm person? Is she 150 years old? Is she learning disabled or none of the above? I intend to terminate my membership.

My Response:

That is just mean. Poor Diane Rehm has a throat condition. Hopefully you never develop any health problems or have a big goiter grow on your ugly face. Your threat of termination has been taken under consideration, and we wish to terminate you instead. No more public radio for you!

Dear Public Radio Slave,

I work at a public radio station and when we first began airing Diane Rehm more than five years ago I got these two comments:

1. Who is that awful woman you have on the air?? She sounds like she's been dead for five years!

2. I hate her voice. I know she has a throat condition, but I don't care. I wouldn't watch a television reporter who'd been burned in a fire, either.

Yikes.

Love your blog-- it's nice to know we're not alone. We have some great stories here. Can we submit?

Thanks for the nice comments Molly, they made my day. I've just finished my Public Radio Slave book, so hopefully you'll be able to read more stories soon. Yes, please feel free to submit stories, just let me know if you need a fake name!

Thanks for the excellent review!
