Not the finest of months for WRKO: Howie Carr fumes after phonelines go down
These are rough days for the floundering, flailing Boston talk radio station WRKO. For unknown reasons, the toll-free phonelines to WRKO’s talk shows went down this morning, making drive-time talk-show host Howie Carr a very unhappy camper, in part, I guess, because his popular weekly Monday guest Max Robins was on. Ever the entertainer, Mr. Carr did the best of the situation and even let the callers who got through do live Chump Line messages and joked about letting the line fill up again after he had finished taking a call. I think Mr. Robins joked that they would soon do the show in Morse Code.
