  Speaker 3: Hey.

  Speaker 1: You know the CBS network we would mentioned earlier in
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: the program, there are going to be a lot of
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: layoffs today over at CBS News. You know, they have
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: CBS News and they do the newscast on television, but
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: you know there's also the CBS Radio network News. And
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: if you used to listen to the old WCBS Radio,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: remember at the top of the hour they go to
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: the network CBS Radio News and top of the hour
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: they would do the news. Well, a lot of stations
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: around the country would carry the CBS Radio News as
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: their news source, and the top of the hour the
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: network newscast was just announced. Hard to believe. CBS management
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: just put out this statement today. We informed our CBS
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: News Radio team and our approximately seven hundred affiliates that
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: we will end the service on May twenty second, twenty
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: twenty six. No more CBS Radio News, no more CBS
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: News Radio, closing down the whole thing, not just eliminating
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: some jobs, shutting down the whole CBS News radio service.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: It will not exist it's been around one hundred years.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Edward R. Murrow was on CBS News Radio, Walter Cronkite, Lowell,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: Thomas dan Rather, Mike Wallace. It's gone May twenty second.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: What's that like? Two months? You have to do that,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: by the way, because you have seven hundred affiliates. You
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: can't just shut it off Monday. You have to give
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: all your affiliates time to find another network to use.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: But that's interesting. Let's go to Stuart in South Carolina. Stuart,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: how you doing?
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Hey?
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: Mark? You know, I want to mention about these speed
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: cameras and red light cameras. You know, I've been a
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: police officer next year'll be fifty years, and I believe
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: they are completely unconstitutional. And the reason is that when
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: an officer arrests, say for a misdemeanor, which is, you know,
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: running a red light or speeding, he has to witness
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: that that infraction to make an arrest. And the ticket
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: is actually an arrest, but you're you're being released on the.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Camera takes a photograph. That's kind of a witness.
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: It does. But the problem is, Mark, that you have
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: to have an individual and officer witness that infraction, and
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: when you have a camera. A camera cannot testify in
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: court to your speed or that you ran a red light.
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: That's why people wear monkey masks and bags over their heads,
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: and they change their license plates and put covers over them.
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: I don't believe we have them in the South.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Maybe quicker just to go to the speed limit, wait in
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: line and distorted, buy a monkey mask and hey, let
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: me ask you off the record question. It's speed limit
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: to fifty five now, guys going on sixty one miles?
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Then would you pull them over for that?
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: No, I allowed fifteen miles over and most officers down
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: here too.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah whoa, oh absolutely yeah yeah.
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: Even on we have Highway one here, which is forty
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: five or fifty five. A lot of times we'd allow
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: about sixty nine or seventy wow. Yeah, and then a
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: lot of times if the people are nice, we would
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: break it down to say fifty nine and fifty, which
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: is a two point ticket. As long as you don't
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: have any other tickets, it doesn't make your insurance go up. Yeah,
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: So there are ways of doing things.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: All right, great call as always, Stuart. Let's go to
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: dan Port Jefferson, Dan, how you doing Mark?

• 3:38
  Speaker 5: people finding it hard to get IDs, they can't get
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: IDs to Are those people we want electing our officials.
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: We really want them voting. If they can't get an ID.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Everybody can get an idea. It's just the democratic racism.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: They're so racist. They actually say that all minorities, well
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: they would that wouldn't know how to get a photo.

• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Don't leave New York, stay in New York. Rich thanks
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: for calling. Oh, let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: How you doing, I'm doing good. Mark. If I were
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: to yowder of that, what'd you say to Christie? I
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: would immediately call my exterminator, have a new one inspection sticker,
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: a certificate dawn of the kitchen and the bathroom in
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: the restaurant, because guaranteed, before this weekends over, somebody from
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: the state Health Department in Arkansas is going to pay
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: a visit to that restaurant, and magically they're gonna find
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: mice and rats, feces in the kitchen, in the food
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: prep area, some dead cockroaches, and they're going to close
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: that restaurant down. As you said, Mark, I noticed that
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: blue cities in Blue States. Man Dommy's what he did
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: the other day is a perfect example. Yesterday you were
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: talking about how he took out the criminal prosecution of
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: any person on a bicycle committing a traffic infraction. Now,
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: if you look at all these e riders, these door
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: dash riders, grub Hub, look at them. Most of them
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: are Indians Pakistani Southeast stations. Those are his large part
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: of those people are his voting base, and he's protecting
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: all his homeboys. And in other instances, the city passes
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: laws where you got to hire people who work in
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: his voting block. For example, last year they passed the
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: law that it didn't apply to me, but certain people.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: If you have a brick or mercenary parapet on your building,
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: you have to have that inspected. I didn't. I have
• 6:39
