Even Hay-tie has more class than that. <br />Oh, wait, Goodman is essentially pitching for herself, since WBAI pays her for her show. <br /><br />SDLAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486287910626602438.post-41467234043435739172014-07-29T11:06:40.215-04:002014-07-29T11:06:40.215-04:00One did not have to have a long-standing associati...One did not have to have a long-standing association with Margot to forever carry her in one's memory. The last time I saw her was at NPR, when she came out of her office to give me a hug. Margot was one of a kind, but—generally speaking--I am tempted to inject a cliché: "They don't make 'em like that anymore." The truth is that they actually do, but WBAI no longer appreciates such talent—hasn't done so in decades.
