  • Political Engagement Through Text Sound Poetry
    Wesleyan ♦ University Political Voices: Political Engagement Through Text Sound Poetry By Celeste Hutchins Faculty Advisor: Ron Kuivila A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Wesleyan University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. Middletown, Connecticut May 2005 Text Sound Poetry I created several pieces using manipulated speech recordings, starting in the fall of 2003. After completing some of these pieces, I became aware of Text Sound Poetry as a well-defined genre involving similar passages between language and sound. To find out more about this genre, I listened to Other Mind’s re-release of 10 + 2: 12 American Text Sound Pieces, the re-released OU archives and Terre Thaemlitz’s album Interstices. Text Sound seems to be especially well suited to political expression. Often, a political work suffers a tension between the political/text content and the musical content. Either the political message or the music often must be sacrificed. However, in Text Sound, the text content is the musical content. Composers like Sten Hanson, Steve Reich and Terre Thaemlitz are able to create pieces where complaints about the Vietnam War, police brutality, and gender discrimination form the substance of the piece. To engage the piece is to engage the political content. Reich’s pieces are less obvious than Hanson and Thaemlitz. The loop process he uses in “Its Gonna Rain” is auditorially interesting, but the meaning of the piece is not immediately clear to a modern listener. Many discussions of his pieces eliminate the political content and focus on the process. Before I did research on this piece I was disturbed by the implications of a white composer taking the words of an African American and obscuring them until the content was lost to the process.

  • The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy
    Mount Rushmore: The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy Brian Asher Rosenwald Wynnewood, PA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts, University of Pennsylvania, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia August, 2015 !1 © Copyright 2015 by Brian Asher Rosenwald All Rights Reserved August 2015 !2 Acknowledgements I am deeply indebted to the many people without whom this project would not have been possible. First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.

  • The Don Imus Controversy
    The Don Imus Controversy (Parashat Shemini) Rabbi Stuart Weinblatt April 14, 2007 I have some breaking news to share with you. Just before Shabbat I received word that CBS and MSNBC have decided to simulcast all our services from now on, to make up for the programming gap caused by the cancellation of “Imus in the Morning”. We are considering names for the show – and the one they seem to like the most is “Minyan in the Morning.” In consenting to do the show, I told them I had certain standards and made it clear that I would not agree to wear a dumb cowboy hat instead of a yarmulke when conducting services. That might be a deal-broker, so we will have to wait and see if they will accept my terms. I know that by now many of you may be sick of this whole story and wondering why there was so much interest in this in a week when there are so many other important news events, so much more deserving of our attention. There should be a special on Sunday night – the news you may have missed, or that wasn’t broadcast. It was after all, a week when a top Iranian official said that his country is making serious progress towards achieving its goal of acquiring nuclear capability. There were significant developments in the war in Iraq, and almost forgotten in all the coverage of the Imus story, it was also a week when we finally learned that Larry Birkhead is in fact the father of Anna Nicole Smith’s daughter Danielynn.

  • A Piece of History
    A Piece of History Theirs is one of the most distinctive and recognizable sounds in the music industry. The four-part harmonies and upbeat songs of The Oak Ridge Boys have spawned dozens of Country hits and a Number One Pop smash, earned them Grammy, Dove, CMA, and ACM awards and garnered a host of other industry and fan accolades. Every time they step before an audience, the Oaks bring four decades of charted singles, and 50 years of tradition, to a stage show widely acknowledged as among the most exciting anywhere. And each remains as enthusiastic about the process as they have ever been. “When I go on stage, I get the same feeling I had the first time I sang with The Oak Ridge Boys,” says lead singer Duane Allen. “This is the only job I've ever wanted to have.” “Like everyone else in the group,” adds bass singer extraordinaire, Richard Sterban, “I was a fan of the Oaks before I became a member. I’m still a fan of the group today. Being in The Oak Ridge Boys is the fulfillment of a lifelong dream.” The two, along with tenor Joe Bonsall and baritone William Lee Golden, comprise one of Country's truly legendary acts. Their string of hits includes the Country-Pop chart-topper Elvira, as well as Bobbie Sue, Dream On, Thank God For Kids, American Made, I Guess It Never Hurts To Hurt Sometimes, Fancy Free, Gonna Take A Lot Of River and many others. In 2009, they covered a White Stripes song, receiving accolades from Rock reviewers.

  • Warner Wolf Suing Don Imus for Age Discrimination
    Warner Wolf suing Don Imus for age discrimination nypost.com/2018/02/15/warner-wolf-suing-don-imus-for-age-discrimination/ By Andrew Marchand For a retirement present, one New York broadcast legend has filed a lawsuit against another. Warner Wolf is taking Don Imus and three others to the New York State Supreme Court, alleging Wolf was let go from WABC’s “Imus in the Morning” show at the end of 2016 because of age discrimination and is owed severance, as well as damages for “severe mental anguish, emotional distress, humiliation,” among other maladies. Imus is scheduled to retire from his show at the end of March. He regularly makes fun of everything and everybody. In the suit, Imus is the first one named as a defendant, along with WABC GM Chad Lopez, Cumulus Sr. VP Mike McVay and WABC program director Craig Schwalb. The claim was filed late Thursday morning, and a copy was obtained by The Post. Wolf’s lawyer, Douglas H. Wigdor writes, “Imus routinely made inappropriate comments about the Plaintiff’s age, including stating that it was ‘time to put [Mr. Wolf] out to pasture’ and ‘shoot him with an elephant dart gun.’” In 2016, the suit says that Imus replaced Wolf, then 78, because of his age and hired Sid Rosenberg, who was 30 years younger. Wolf claims that Cumulus refused to honor severance for 26 weeks of pay, amounting to $97,500. There seems to be a disagreement between the two parties if a deal had been officially consummated. Both Imus and Wolf have had legendary broadcast careers.

  • The Deirdre Imus Environmental Health Center®
    The Deirdre Imus Environmental Health Center® In 1998, Deirdre and Don Imus founded The Imus Cattle Ranch for Kids with Cancer® in Ribera, New Mexico. The ranch is a pristine, non-toxic environment, serving a vegetarian, organic menu and is the first of its kind. After seeing kids thrive at the ranch, Deirdre was inspired to bring this lifestyle to another healing place: the hospital. In 2001, Deirdre, President and Founder of The Deirdre Imus Environmental Health Center®, worked with a team of experts at Hackensack University Medical Center, a 501 (c)(3) not-for-profit corporation, to develop the Greening The Cleaning® program. Our Mission • The Deirdre Imus Environmental Health Center® at HackensackUMC represents one of the first hospital-based programs whose mission is to identify, control and ultimately prevent toxic exposures in the environment that threaten our children's health. • The Greening The Cleaning® program strives to eliminate all cleaning agents containing hazardous ingredients and replace them with environmentally- responsible, less toxic products. • 100% of all profits from our products go to the Center for supporting the Greening The Cleaning® program in addition to funding education and research. Legislation Efforts at the Center have resulted in “Green Cleaning” Executive Orders from governors in multiple states - including New York, New Jersey and Connecticut - as well as related legislation in 10 states. Green is a Growing Business According to the Facility Cleaning Decisions June 2014 Reader Survey, respondents indicated that green products and processes have almost become a ‘no-brainer’ with green cleaning product usage increasing 28% over 2013. • 74% do whatever they can to incorporate green products into their cleaning program.
