Bernstein and the Burkes are a perfect match, as none of them can make a perfectly defensible point without pissing you off and turning you against them.

Just an update: it seems that some headway is being made. Since the station does not have enough sense to put this to bed, or at least HIGHLY alter the way they interact with Bob, we're just going to have to get some state departments and advocacy group up their ass.

Let it (really) begin.

Just make sure people record the show so we can pass on audio files.

Yes, and was passed along a few more contact options - the bad news is that the legal counsel of the state's department on aging did review (to what extent, I do not know) this situation back in May, and decided that the abuse (their term) was not enough (based on what they know) for a human rights violation....but the good news is that they ARE aware, and I've reached out to more folks that advocate for seniors in IL.

Yes, his silence is gross to me - there's no way you refuse to address it, like he has been doing, if you don't know there is an issue there. At first his silence was just a blanket endorsement, now I think it's a bit of an admission of guilt. If there was truly nothing wrong with it, he'd be telling people that Bob loves it - I've talked to his family - he's an important part of an important show on our important station. Nope, silence.

I'm glad the proper authorities have been alerted.

Imagine Terry in prison.

Any idea as to what prompted them to look into this back in May?

Bernstein alerted the proper authorities that one of Bob's neighbors was hassling him.

Well, Bob's on again. As Les would say, so much for that.

They probably briefed him first and told him not to come off so desperate.

Even if Bob wasn't an old dementia patient this is still awful radio. Some of the worst around. Just terrible, historically terrible.
