What an interesting angle to compare MADD's media standards to McAuliffe drinking hard liquour on the air. Fortunately, BOb McDonnell is a leader who advocates for MADD and getting drunk drivers off of our roads. Oddly enough, this is a "morning" show, it is not like it a late night show, but a morning show. Anyway, interesting post and nice blog.

Thanks for the drive by and your comment....Nielson television surveys indicate that alsmost as many televisions are turned on for the morning news as are turned on during the evening news....Children watch and listen to the news from televisions in the morning because that's what mom and dad are listening to.
