The dumbing of Connecticut

UNIVERSAL REMOTE

Colin McEnroe has been fired. I'm sure he'll land on his feet somewhere, but the state's radio has lost its most erudite voice. I suppose WTIC, with its hideous lineup of Dunaway-Vicevich-Limbaugh-Hannity, etc., is satisfied that it's appealing to the area's philistines (The station is, after all, run by CBS, the network that insists its sports announcers wear American flag pins in their lapels.), but it's certainly lost at least two afternoon listeners.

At any rate, the news is really like hearing of the loss an old friend.
