KANE - Jeff Boggs

By Outraged
Published/Last Modified on Wednesday, July 22, 2009 5:17 AM CDT

When will the owners of KANE wake up and realize that Jeff Boggs is running off their advertisers as well as future ones? As soon as Obama took office, suddenly it was important to air the presidents Saturday message. It wasn’t important when Bush was president. Now he is replaying Obama’s speeches in entirety and,  as usual, downgrading any elected official who brings out the truth. We are sick and tired of our local radio station being taken over by a radical socialist liberal.

    " I cant imagine how much longer this is going to last. I listened to him for over an hour today and not one person called in. I almost called just because I felt sorry for him, but then decided to just wait and see how long it would last. He literally sounds like he is in a room all alone and talking (mumbling) to himself. Like he's in a straight jacket or something. "

    " I would probably not listen to a radio show, I didn't like. Just saying. You want him gone. Turn it off. Those that know the broadcasting industry, know that the "personality" that you hear on air is just filler until the commercials. The more advertisers you have, the less often you hear the other voice. What's more, the less advertisters you have the more likely it is that the "personality" will not be able to continue his show on that station. Want him gone don't listen and advertisers won't buy time during his show. No more annoying Liberal. "

    " Bogga lives in a liberal never-never land. I wish his whibey voice woyld go back to Chicago!! (Or wherever) His opinions make me regurgitate so much that I have STOPPED doing business with ANY of his sponsors. A typical northern snob who has NO CLUE of the real world. May he go away soon ---- and bring all his liberal give-away the country ideas with him. "

    " Direct your comments to Jeff. He is the one who is mean-spirited. He rants about Senator David Vitter, and wants HIM to be “fired”. I think it’s time for Jeff Bogg’s skeletons to be brought out of the closet. Maybe then he won’t be so judgmental. I think he will be quite happy living in Florida. "

    " It is time for people to stop riding Jeff's rear end! It is evident that there are some people that do not like him but to act evil and want his job taken is down right evil to wish that on anyone. What type of people are you? Many enjoy his show and if you don't it is your choice. No one demands that you listen to his program. Everyone has a choice, change your station. Good Lord, I don't know what this world is coming to when I see people wanting someone-fired! "

    " Boggs is a waste of oxygen and air time. When he told me that he wanted to round up and get rid of all the rich I saw that he was socialist trash just like Obozo.
    It's been a 3 years since I've listened to KANE because of him. Till he's gone I'll have no use for them.
    It is possible for 1 person to ruin a good station. "

    " To: Steve-O -Reno, Fair & balanced you refer to wouldn't be the Democratic "FAIRNESS DOCTRINE" would it???? An attempt by democrats to force people to listen to LIBERALS because they can't succeed in the free market of radio programming!!!! Air America is their last attempt!!!!! Talk about LEFT WING MORASS!!! HA HA HA George Soros backed Stuart Smally for Senate after his FAILURE!! Now the democrats in Michigan STOLE another election with ACORNS help & we have Stuart Smally in the Senate since he was such a FAILURE on Air America!!!! "

    " It's about time the crusty right wing New Iberia establishment get some differing views. I applaud KANE for giving some balance to the right wing morass that most of Radio has become since stations are no longer required to be truly fair and balanced. "

    " There were a couple of times I listened to Jeff Boggs, once when Fontenot was making history in New Iberia by destroying it's public safety. And once after the debacle when I realized listening to Jeff Boggs was like listening to announcer on a golf program. Tired, tired, tired, sorta like watching the grass grow in New Mexico. He might have something to say but I certainly don't have to listen to it. I personally don't believe he has an audience large enough to influence in one way or another. "

    " It is not YOUR radio station if you do not own it and you do not like what is being said on it. DUHHHH.. change the station, because guess what, whoever owns it obviously supports and likes what is being said on it. Simple as that. Don't support it! "

    " Beg to differ on the truth. There is only the Jeffboggs Truth. He'll cut you off, go to a commercial, tell you another caller is waiting, etc. if he don't like what you're saying or if he knows what you are saying is a truth contrary to his own. I bet he can also walk down Main St. with an open bottle of beer now because his guy is now head honcho deputy dog. "

    " There is nothing wrong with Jeff Boggs and his show. Our country is based on freedom of speech . He is just allowing us to view the complete political picture. For too many years we in South Louisiana were shelteredfrom the truth about our world. Boggs is finally exposing us to the total picture. Thanks Jeff ! "

    " Bill,
    I have to agree with you on your statement that people are too coward to call in and state their name of maybe be recognized by their voice. More people need to stand up with their views, opinions and the truth and not be afraid to speak up. This is the purpose of Jeff's program. Jeff and I don't always agree on issues but that is perfectly alright and it makes the world go around. I don't hold it against Jeff if he chooses to disagree with my views and it has happened. "

    To Bill wrote on Jul 23, 2009 3:07 PM:

    " People have ALWAYS been concerned about their voices being recognized. The reason calls have dropped off is because almost no one listens to his show anymore. Several people I know are news junkies, and many of them used to listen to his show, myself included. Because of this thread I listened to his show today for the first time in a very long time (the first hour anyway) , and in the first hour he had a total of two calls. Also, in that time he only ran two commercial breaks. Apparently he is losing sponsors as well aslisteners. "

    Bill wrote on Jul 23, 2009 9:26 AM:

    " I do listen and while calls have waned I'm guessing that it's because he focuses too much time on local issues and people are afraid to speak out on the issues in their backyards. Afraid of their voices being recognized by the local officials he's willing to question. If he spends ten percent of his time on what you call liberal or national issues that would be a reach. you folks are cowards who don't call him to complain but will post here. "

    Ananias wrote on Jul 23, 2009 6:54 AM:

    " I tuned in to KANE the other day, after a long absence, just to hear what Jeff would be talking about. I tuned in just in time to hear him criticizing people who "still believe that the media is slanted towards the left." I thought to myself well I can see that nothing has changed and immediately found something else to listen to.
    Jeff is so deep into his leftest views that he doesn't even realize how delusional he is. He is as delusional as Al Franken, Michael Moore & Janeane Garofalo. He would probably love to-have-these-clowns-as-guests-on-his-show! "

    " I couldn't comment one way or the other on what Jeff is doing at KANE, I stopped listening years ago when all he could do was criticize President Bush and Senator Vitter. My advice to you is to do like many of us have done, STOP LISTENING. If enough people just stop listening it will all go away. Maybe Jeff will eventually get a job at MSNBC, NBC or ABC with the rest of the liberal media. "
