Radio Equalizer has MORE questions

Brian Maloney at the Radio Equalizer caught the entire open of the Randi Rhodes show yesterday:



I am still fixated on wondering what happened to Simon? You know, the dog Rhodes was supposed to have been walking when she was mugged er...attacked er...shoved er...tripped er...lost her balance?

Brian Maloney has more questions:


Blaming everyone but herself for the events that transpired, with special venom reserved for the press, Rhodes only deepened the confusion surrounding her accident. Here are questions we'd like answered:

Why did she send an email to Air America staffers claiming to have been mugged if there was no indication one had occurred?

Why has host Jon Elliot been forced to apologize for simply relaying Randi's note to network listeners? Is he the fall guy for her dishonesty?

Since there was never any evidence to support an attack claim, why did she even suggest this possibility in a way she knew would reach the press?

Why won't she tell us how much she'd had to drink before she'd stepped out of the Irish pub?

And perhaps most importantly, why doesn't it bother her that the phony mugging story was quickly turned into a chance to beat up on conservatives, who were actually blamed for the incident?



And one more from me. Why has Talking Radio suddenly become mum on this when they gleefully exploited this incident for exposure? Why do they continue to call this a "mugging"? They sure loved all the publicity when they were linked to Drudge and "even the NY Times!"

Of course accountability is not a liberal value. So I'll give them a little help:
