'Gopher' Plotting New Radio Show to Tackle Radical Islam

[Geee]

Fox News:

Listeners in the nation’s capital might be hearing again from Fred Grandy, the former “Love Boat” star and ex-congressman who left his radio show last week after a fallout with management allegedly over some on-air Islam remarks.

But it might take awhile.

Catherine Mann-Grandy, Fred’s wife, told FoxNews.com that his contract does not expire until May 2012 and that he can’t do any radio shows in the Washington, D.C., region for another year. She also said WMAL, the radio station where Grandy was a host since 2003, is making it “very difficult” for her husband to sever his relationship with the company.

However, she said the two of them would like to eventually have a show of their own, to concentrate on the issue that effectively ended their run at WMAL – radical Islam and its influence in the United States.

“We would love to do a show devoted only to the problem of Shariah law versus the Constitution of the United States,” she said, adding that they might call it: “The Good Fight.”

This is one of those situations where the Grandys would be better off to be quiet and wait out the contract. Talking about it this way, and having it all refuted by management puts them in a "they said, they said" situation that is difficult to win. It begins to look way to personal, and the Grandys will get far more damaged by the fallout from that battle. EVEN if they are right. It sucks, and life isn't fair...but that's the way it works.

 

IMO, what they should do is get out of DC and see if they can't start a successful show elsewhere...returning to DC after 2012.
