KFI adds a talker

| 19 Comments

John Ziegler will come to Los Angeles in January and work the 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. shift "live and local," as they say, reports LA Radio.com. Ziegler was recently removed from a morning AM talk slot in Louisville after divulging intimate details about a TV anchorwoman he had dated. A TV face-off show also was cancelled this year. Ziegler's website proudly lists all the enemies he has made, including the Kentucky governor. The site also touts a page of "Zieglerisms," including these:

"Baseball is much like liberalism and organized religion...it seems like a great idea when you're young, but then most people grow up and get a clue."

"The female figure is the greatest known evidence that there might be a God...but the female psyche is an indication that this God has a very sick sense of humor."

"Bad sex is usually better for the man than the woman...unless he has a conscience, while great sex is usually better for the woman...unless she happened to grow up as a Catholic...or is socially impotent."

In a previous gig he was fired for using the n-word and wrote about it for the Jewish World Review. Your mileage may vary, but I'm not seeing any reason to set a KFI button in the car for this guy.
