The odd-couple pairing by Denver radio station 630KHOW of liberal blowhard David Sirota and conservative Michael Brown caused some to scratch their heads initially. Turns out the honeymoon may be over. We’ve heard that Sirota’s days at KHOW are numbered. Then, we noticed when listening to the show yesterday that any reference to Sirota had been stripped from the bumper music. Further, Michael Brown led with “this is Michael Brown on KHOW ’til 7 o’clock” and never mentioned Sirota or the name of their show “The Rundown with Sirota and Brown”.
The news comes just a couple of months after this Revealing Politics video of Sirota freaking out at 850KOA host and Denver staple, Mike Rosen at “Battle of the Talk Show Hosts” in October of last year. Sirota’s expletive-laced diatribe features his favorite modifier, “mother f@*^er”. Just watch.
In addition to his radio gig, Sirota is a long-time journalist and contributor to Salon.com, who aspires to be the next Keith Olbermann (we assume when Olbermann was gainfully employed) or Rachel Maddow (he’s got the haircut close). We suppose he could always get a job at CurrenTV. Oh, wait. Al Jazeera owns that now. Hm…..
Sirota gone? Hallellujah! I will start listening to KHOW again. That foul mouthed pinko makes my skin crawl.
He does look a lot like Rachel Maddow except for the male pattern baldness.
None, I hope. His childish petulance, arrogance and lack of self control make for lousy listening.
Don't forget Hugh Hewitt is on 710 KNUS!
If you look for his LinkedIn profile. It has an end date for Clear Channel of January 2013
For me he was off the air several months ago! Maybe know is just catching up. I like listening to level headed opposing pints of view. He is not level jeaded and twists things incredibly. If he is gone I always hate to see someone lose employment. I wish
Him well somwhere else.
I was a loyal Caplis and Silverman listener- I can't stand Sirota and have now been enjoying Hugh Hewitt- great show. I can't understand what khow was thinking when they dumped C&S?
The worst for me was his show about taping your sexual escapades WHILE his very young son was in the studio……no decency whatsoever…….never germain, always ranting……and very loose with the facts.
You going to replace him if this is true?
Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy….Quite frankly he sucked and the show sucked…amazing it lasted as long as it did. As the song says…."another one bites the dust."
I stopped listening to KHOW on the drive home because of him.
From Sirota's FB page,
"A thought after a New Years Day spent meditating on life, etc.: 2013 is the first year I can remember in which I feel like I have no idea what's in my short- or long-term future. Granted, none of us really know what's in our future, but this is the first time I can't even come up with what feels like a decent projection. It's a little unnerving."
Sounds like he did get the old heave ho, and doesn't have anywhere to go.
excellent. typical liberal. rood, condescending, etc…. and not that smart either. good riddance.
excellent. he was a loose cannon and a very dim bulb, aside from being rood. typical liberal.
Lefties are like purposefully obese people that can't stay away from fast food. Open hands and open mouths till the end of time.
Wow! Good news. I'll start listening again. Phil O
Wondered what had happened, I actually listened to the program the last 2 days and it was a pleasure. I had not tuned in for many weeks as could not take him. The liberals are their worse enemies and this time some one who cares took charge. Good for Clear Channel, What an idiot.
ps: if he comes back I will again tune out.
I am not a big Michael Brown fan but I cannot stand David Sirota. Good riddance.
Just turned on KHOW online and Michael Brown called it the Rundown with MB. Even on IHeartRadio its just called "The Rundown". KHOW webpage still has Sirota on it though.
So would I Jan.
Would love Mike Brown to have his own show again. He is an asset to Clear Channel.
I would tune out on the nights when Brownie wasn't there. Listening to Sirota was like listening to some whiney little bitch. On Election Night, I was listening to both Brown and Sirota wasting time before any results came in. Sirota threw a hissy fit and stormed out of the studio making it clear the only adult on that show was Michael Brown. Good riddance!
I have to admit I quit listening after the second time they were on together. I really enjoyed Caplis and Craig Silverman. I enjoyed listening to Mike Brown when he was on at nights by himself. Sarota just a olberman wannabe and failed at that.
Mike Rosen is one of the favorite boogeymen of the Colorado Left. Just mention his name over at sites like Colorado Pols and watch the freakout begin. Since Sirota's old time slot on KKZN is occupied, what are the chances he will be heard on Colorado Radio anytime soon?
2013 is looking up already!
I love radical liberals…..when they are on fire. Sirota flames out and it was joyous to watch.
BRAVO!!!
Lame.
Could we be so lucky?
NICE!
