Smerconish Tapped To Write Inky Column, Del-Val Racist Dads Rejoice
I want you, as a Big Talker 1210 Listener Club Member, to be among the first to hear some personal/professional news.I’ve just agreed to write a weekly column for the Philadelphia Inquirer.
No, hell has not frozen over. (Thank goodness for global warming or it might have.*)
While I’ve had plenty to say about the Inquirer over the years, I have never denied that it IS the newspaper of record for Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware. The invitation for me to come aboard suggests that the Inquirer truly wishes to broaden the blend of opinion offered in its pages, which I think can only serve the readership well. I did not seek this affiliation, but I am looking forward to it. My first column will appear this coming Sunday in the Currents section of the newspaper.
Jesus, add another meme to the comedy of Inky errors. What’s that? Why, yes, of course we here at Philebrity are Big Talker 1210 Listener Club members. Aren’t you?
*Also, can we just say? What a raging asshole.

Ol’ Mike sure did make it sound like his announcement was gonna change the world didn’t he? Yeah, I’m a Big Talker 1210 Listener Club member too.
Mike writes a column = talks about it on the air = listeners go out and buy newspaper with said column.
Whatever. I’m still getting my news from the web.

I never dreamed I’d be saying this, but I’ll miss you, Grogan.

PW should bring back Tommy Up, so they can put him up against Smerconish in the Philadelphia Columnists Club’s Annual Headbutt Beatdown Contest. That’d be crackin.
