She is hardly the first media person to be berated on the radio. Joe Buck, Tim McCarver, Dan Deirdorf come to mind as having been quite soundly criticized on the radio - as well as in this forum. Should we treat her any differently because she is a woman, or should we hold her to the same standards?
I agree that she isn't very good and takes away from a broadcast. I don't want her on my TV during a football game either.
However, you equating the rantings of posters on a web forum to the responsibilities of an FCC regulated radio station broadcaster declaring that she is a "*****" who should "drop dead" is a fail.
If anyone here would write such a post in this small web forum that Minihane declared on the public airwaves, that post would be deleted immediately and the poster given an infraction.
But evidently, our standards are higher than WEEI's.
