He claimed that prior to 9/11 the world trade center towers were the tallest in the world. He was wrong. There were at least 4 other taller buildings at the time. Severino was advocating that the U.S. attack and destroy the tall buildings in Arab nations so as to "get even". This guy is a psychopath.

One host starts with a half-truth and spins it to their favor (often against Obama) and this lie is promoted throughout the day on several shows (to be fair mostly Michael Graham, Jay Severin and Michele Mcphee) until suddenly it is accepted as the truth. If you spend a couple days listening to the station, as I did during the summer when I had some extra time, it is painfully and pathetically obvious how thin all their "material" is- it would be laughable except for the fact that there is an audience for this crap posing as news Of course Don Imus and Michael Graham said the same thing about the White House Christmas display – that’s how many shows at WTKK) work.

I'm not saying there was no discussion among WH staff or even by POTUS or FLOTUS themselves about what decorations would be put up. But I have yet to see a credible source put the words "nothing religious for Christmas ... no manger, no statues, nothing" in the President's mouth. I have a feeling that those specific words were uttered either by Ms. Rogers, or more likely some other pundit, or quite possible by no one at all other than Jay Severin. Jay is very quick to correct callers with "that's not what I said." If he insists on being quoted accurately he should show the same deference to others. Greg, I’m not denying the entire incident.

As did Michael Graham. Did they all get ti wrong? It wasn't just Jay. I'm not an "Obamunist" or an anti Obama pundit... but I can beleive it since more than one source talked about it. Even the liberal Eagan and Braudie tossed this about for several segments. Blame Jay for alot of rhetoric but he got this one right. Funny,
