I Will Be on Korda's show at Noon
By: Mark Harmon

I will be on George Korda's radio show at noon today, 98.7 FM. I hope some Knoxviews readers can listen and maybe even add diversity to the typical range of callers. --Mark Harmon

I don't see anything on that

I don't see anything on that website about George Korda. In addition, it shows football coming up at Noon. What's up?

Maybe the website is not up-to-date?

Station website is not complete

Korda's show is called "State Your Case." During Titan football season it gets bumped back to late afternoon. The Titans no longer are playing football. The show resumes its winter slot of Noon on Sundays, and I am the guest this noon. I confirmed all of this in an e-mail exchange with the host this morning.

PS Since WNOX lost its license for the "blowtorch" transmitter (100,000 watts at 100.3 on the dial), it is now on 98.7--harder to pick up in some areas of town, but also available online at the site Becky noted.

George Korda is a tool. Scan

George Korda is a tool. Scan the googles and look for left v. right wing hate speech. Yes, there are nutjobs on the fringes of both sides. But far more of the harmful hate speech comes from the right. Anyone who denies that is delusional.

That said, yes this guy in AZ is a fringe nutjob who may or may not be coherent enough to receive Sarah Palin style "reload" messages (or Keith Olbermann's messages of hate and anarchy, according to Korda). But a valid point is the more of this right wing stuff is out there on the airwaves, the more likely some nutjob will be on the frequency.

And the fact that powerful, high-capacity weapons are so easily and legally available where this nutjob lives doesn't help.

Insurrectionism Timeline

June 26, 2008—The case of District of Columbia v. Heller is decided by the Supreme Court in a 5-4 ruling. The opinion not only endorses the National Rifle Association’s “individual right” interpretation of the Second Amendment; it also affirms that one of the purposes of the right is to “assure the existence of a “citizens’ militia” as a safeguard against tyranny.” The NRA’s amicus brief in the case had argued that “the Second Amendment refers to the utility of an armed population in preventing government tyranny.”

Sorry, Mark, I wish I could

Sorry, Mark, I wish I could call in and help. Korda is not being reasonable. You, Mark, are doing a great job. Too bad your computer is not working.

No more

I really hope he does not go on that show again. He is too smart and too moral to be dragged into that one-sided fray.

It was totally unfair for Korda to have internet access and not allow Mark the same courtesy and then he taunted him about it.
