Wow. I'm surprised by the strong reaction many of you have to Kevin's last show. Calling for a boycott of sponsors
wow, that's some strong stuff.
This is not a first for a program on the VP Live network. It's just that whenever it has happened in the past, it has been a result of something I have done on Click, Bang! - not something done on Kevin's show, VP Live Talk Radio, or any of the other programs on the VP Live Network.
Like I said, I think calling for a boycott is a very strong action
despite the fact that what was said on Kevin's show was, in my opinion, no big deal.
...
I think if you look back in this
Thread Russ that you will see No Real Opposition for what happened on Kevins 2nd show up to and Including SJ Interview.
SJ came on, Kevin voiced his concerns, SJ spoke his piece, Kevin made Comments, SJ answered, Kevin Answered. Not Much to write home about. It was Civil and Professional by Kevin.
It was what Happened After SJ Interview that I Personally took Offense to. And what I believe Most People here on the ECF found Extremely Vulgar and Disturbing.
All Kevin had to do was leave the Issue of Moderation where it was when the recorded SJ Interview was over and None of the this would have happened. But Kevin Couldnt. He had to stage that Call in to take a Cheap Shot at someone he Doesnt Like.
It would be a True Shame if your Show was Effected by this. Because the Click Bang shows I have heard that you have Hosted I have liked for the Most Part.
An Example was your Segment last night About CASAA. Whereas I didnt agree 100% with Everything that Any side had to say, it did bring up some Very Interesting points. Both Pro and Con. Another Example was what I considered to be Fair and Professional treatment you gave of the Entire RTS Debacle.
But if your Show is Effected by a Sponsor Pulling Out, was it the Members of the ECF Fault? Or was it Kevins for Stepping Way, Way over the Line?

BTW I couldnt agree with you more about ALL e-Cigarette users need to be More Involved in Local/State/Federal issues regarding e-Cigarette use. And like there are Many who are on the Capital Steps or are writing Letters/Email/Phone Calls, know that there are some who play perhaps Unseen Roles in areas like Health Studies or on Non-Grassroots levels.
