This loud and controversial AM radio personality (#1) has taken a lot of external heat in recent years, but this pales in comparison to the scorched earth of ruined careers he has left in his wake.
If you associate with #1 in any of his businesses, you’d better toe his line for the rest of your natural life or he won’t just fire you, he’ll pull strings that make sure you never work in his section of the media again. He likes to act like it’s him versus the rest of the world, but he is extremely well connected behind the scenes, and has a lot of people doing him favors. Considering how much, and how often, his views and loyalties have changed over the years, this makes things rather difficult for those who enter his orbit.
Furthermore, if you accumulate enough of a following for you to be seen as competition, he will threaten you with the same ruination unless you get in line. Interesting how all those in #1’s sector of media, eventually begin to parrot his talking points. This is exactly what happened with another AM radio host (#2), easily recognized for his dulcet baritone voice, who seemed on the rise after taking over for this legendary late-night broadcaster (#3). A few years ago, he dared to call out #1 on his radio show.
The videos of #2’s broadcast were scrubbed completely from the Internet. Good luck finding them. #2’s career took a nose dive shortly thereafter, and he was never able to regain the presence he once had. He’s since been roped into making occasional appearances on #1’s show, and seems to have gotten much more in line.
