Chris Arnold called out for plagiarism

I just read some of Arnold's tweets in response. Keeps using words like "awesome" and "greatness" to describe Kacsmar and inviting him on talk show. Patronizing BS.

 

Yeah, my first thought was that he was being sarcastic, but that's hard to tell on Twitter.

 

No, that's over-the-top patronizing. Invite the guy you plagiarized onto your show? Yeah, that's a great conversation.

My favorite reader comment from tbl link:

 

Hmmmm, that sounds familiar. No need to be in a rush to draw a parallel.

 

THIS IS WHAT OUR BUSINESS HAS COME TO.

 

You were standing on a table while shouting that, right?

 

Arnold should be fired twice now. Worst groveling ever.

 

So, what happens if he doesn't get fired and retains him as a radio host? Oh, and according to the station's website, he picked up his bachelor's degree in Journalism at Oklahoma. So even if he is an "entertainer," there's no room for this.

 

Just heard he wasn't on air today...

 

The station he's on (KRLD-FM) struggles to break 1.0 in ratings. They broke 1.2 this past month mostly because they are the Cowboys flagship.

These are only the 12+ PPM "beauty contest" numbers. In every other measure, billing, cume, prime 25-54, the only thing worse may be Nasty Nestor's little tax writeoff in B'more.
