Notes of a Defeatist

WNOV-AM (860) Milwaukee has barred talk show host Michael McGee for comments about the death of Katherine Sykes. Sykes, the mother of conservative talk show host Charlie Sykes, WTMJ 620 AM, died earlier this week in a fire at her Mequon home.

...”Mother Sykes, she dead. To me it’s the vengeance of God. I ain’t got no tears. Matter of fact a woman that would have a fool like that deserve whatever is coming her. She raised a sure enough idiot,” McGee said on his radio show. “My instincts say Charlie Sykes killed his momma, cuz she live out in this big palace in Mequon all isolated. He got tired of waiting for her money.”

Today, WNOV suspended McGee¹ indefinitely, and replacing him on the air will be his son, the equally bigoted alderman Michael McGee Jr.²

While Charlie Sykes mourns the untimely loss of his mother, Sykes is no stranger to the having his hand slapped over racist comments. He’s not big on Hispanics, immigrants of perceived illegal nature, and of-course the McGee’s who Sykes’ swung his share of verbal haymakers in their direction.

While talk radio seems to thrive these days on bickering over where the line on hate speech is these days, what do these talking heads manage to create beyond the further polarization of the community in which them spew their views?
Guess that doesn’t matter, just so long as they get paid.
Why does the city of Milwaukee and it’s community tolerate these assclowns? They can run their mouths, and but we don’t need to listen. This city has enough noise.
