April 30 2004 - Glenn Beck Show Notes
- Going to broadcast what actually happens during an abortion....
- Some stations are blocking this program.
- He put some callers on who said portions of the audio were being blocked. They mentioned some details of what they were hearing instead of the the abortion audio.
- Glen, on the air, seemed to call his network operations center to make sure his audio was going out onto satellite unedited.
- 910 AM KNEW seemed to block the audio with jokes whenever it was the abortion clinic audio.
- Our call to KNEW:
- The KNEW 910 programming manager is Ken Kohl - kenkohl@clearchannel.com
- Apparently Ken is on business in dallas
- Andy their business advertising manager didn't know what was going on, but said he would check on it.
- Glen trying another piece of audio, asking affiliates to leave the audio alone
- Sounds like substituted audio: Some kind of song about someone's hard to understand 1-800 number was substituted
- Our call to Clear Channel: 210-822-2828
- Lisa Dalingers - they claim it is up to individual stations whether or not they edit the audio.
- She couldn't say if they were carrying the glen beck show to an affiliate, it would depend on whether the station was an affiliate
- She needed to check if KNEW 910 is an affiliate
- "It would have been a station decision to do any interference. It wasn't anything we did at corporate."
- "I am hearing this from other parts of the country. The programming directory is... I have a feeling it is being done from the show.... I did hear it from other people in other parts of the country.... ok?"
- "radio is entertainment, maybe this is what they they think is entertainment."
- "we do no programming at all at the corporate level.
- "the program director at the station is who ytou would want to speak with
lets wait until monday."
- "he'll complain about it if it was done to him."
- "I appreciate you calling us."
- Glen Beck: Why do I feel this way about abortion procedure... "I didn't air the abortion you thought you were going to hear...."
- three points
- 1. please adopt
- 2. engage your mind, feel the decsions you are making
- 3. Holy cow the Al Franken show sucks
- Welcome back to the program, thanks for being here.
- If you are currently calling a radio station, hang up.
- Andy Kaufman was the kind of guy who wanted you to feel something, to know that you are alive. That is kind of the premise of what we have done for the last week. We wanted you to feel it.
- God bless the insiders, Glen is not going to broadcast an actual abortion.
- apologizes to WGST, and TAM, for pretending they were dumping the audio. There were stations who did want to pull the show, but all of them decided to stay with the show.
- I wasn't I wanted you to feel it with out actually having to hear it.
- Just a quick side point from Glen Beck:
- Stop putting television people on, and expecting that Television people can paint pictures, who dont understand that this is the most sensitive and expressive medium there is. This does take some talent.
Talk With Caller Steve Who Complained About The Program
Glenn then saying to a caller: "I feel bad for the listeners.... Kind of feel bad....."
- EDITOR: Give me a break! You made a conscious effort to mislead your fans.....
The caller goes on to say:
"You've lost me as a listener. You made me look stupid in the eyes of the people who I've been discussing abortion with. When it turns into a slam against the Al Franken show, it made me understand that I can't trust you. I lost integrity with my friends that I suggested should listen to you..."
Glenn asks:
- "Could you palpably feel the effect of the audio?"
- "Do you think your friends did?"
"You trivialized the abortion issue with your skit. I lost faith in your show. I was very intent to get my friends to listen to your show, and then decide for yourself."
The pictures are more powerful in your head than they are on a screen. They were painted without me having to play audio. They were played out of your own fear of what it might sound like. While you were thinking you would hear something, you wondered, especially the pro-choice people, why do I feel this way. If you didn't wonder that, you are living a lie.
Steve, I'm sorry you wont listen anymore. I hope you find one of the other choices out there, other great radio shows out there. I am sorry you can't be a part of this program, I will miss you here.
Caller Brian
Caller feels foolish. It cheapens the subject.
