That is what I’m trying to find out, because the shilling is frankly over the top. To get to the bottom of “Jensen-gate” I’ve written to a contact in the WDEL sales department.
Bill,
Is Charlie Copeland paying to have Rick Jensen advertise for him in the body of his show? If so, shouldn’t Jensen make a point of stating that he is working for Charlie Copeland when he says “Charles Copeland, running for Lt. Gov, saved the blue water wind project” as well as offering other lavish but anti-factual praise.
Thanks for Checking,
Jason
In an email John Kowalko points out why Jensen’s anti-factual praise for Copeland is inappropriate.
Dear all,
Today’s Jensen broadcast and the reference to Copeland’s involvement with the BWW deal was particularly galling. Some of the credit for making the deal happen has been enhanced and exagerrated regarding other individuals but Copeland worked subtlely and obviously against the Power Purchase Agreement and deserves absolutely no credit for this deal being consumnated. Harris and he held very strong misgivings about the project and I have yet to see that attitude change.
John K.
