Dennis Miller: Get Off the Radio!

The world would be a better place if Dennis Miller would avoid joining the ranks of talk radio. Please, I beg you Dennis: Do not go on the air and claim to be a talk radio host. Even Miller admits that he is not a talk radio host; he is a comedian. So why are you doing it, Dennis? Clearly the world has not had enough of you, so you must invade talk radio, too.

His show premieres on Westwood One starting Monday, March 26th. It airs from 10 a.m -1 p.m. I would listen but, oh, wait, there are other programs out there that already dominate the timeslot: Neal Boortz, Glenn Beck and Laura Ingraham, just to name a few.

His shift to talk radio leaves many in the market surprised and angered. It seems that quality products can be trumped by any bearded man with dreamy eyes and a well-known name. It’s amazing what a name will get you.

Well, Dennis, I wish I could say best of luck, but I have a feeling I know how the Arbitron ratings will fall. You are just not right for talk radio. So move on!
