Talk-O-Meter

 

Howie Carr

(Boston, WRKO/680 AM)

He’s a pit-bull talk show host, an influential newspaper columnist, and a long-time feuder with fellow Beantowner (and MSNBC liberal pundit) Mike Barnicle. Carr’s wife sued and settled with Barnicle pal Don Imus after Imus claimed Mrs. Carr had an affair with boxer Riddick Bowe. The conservative Carr likes to bestow nicknames — like “Liveshot” for John Kerry because of Kerry's attraction to news cameras, and “Fat Boy” for, guess who, Ted Kennedy.

Typical comment: “Maybe they can get [$50 billion Ponzi scammer Bernard] Madoff to walk barefoot through the snow in New York City where he could run into one of those hot manhole covers and get electrocuted like the dogs often do.”
