Why liberals find talk radio so threatening. Youre a talk show host and not a conservative. Amy thats right.

Former manager. Also press credential, reporter notebook and televise the trial of the century now with a shocking twist two decades later. Mike most museum goers are shocked to learn they are investigating the stabbing of Nicole Brown Simpson and goldman. A knife allegedly found on the property was kept for many years by now retired lapd officer. How can they as a Police Officer why would you not turn that in . You hope that you can trust the police to do the right thing. People are human. For in the case is front of mind with the f. X. Series American Crime series revisiting the trial.
