Imagine radio DJs who knew their music
I was listening to a local oldies station yesterday and the song Imagine was playing. When the song ended, the idiot DJ said something to the effect of, "What a perfect song for this Memorial Day. Imagine, imagine, imagine no... freedom. No freedom. Whoa, heavy. So remember all the men and women who died for your freedom. Because freedom is the most important thing in the world. Go USA."
Okay, maybe not the "Go USA" part, but the rest was pretty much what he said. He took a great song and took a bit out of context, and mangled it to try to make it fit his own agenda. How about "Nothing to kill or die for"? How about "Imagine all the people/ Living life in peace"? Where's that fit into your Memorial Day war spiel?
Also on the topic of radio DJs, do you think there's a special school for NPR DJs? Or do they just get made fun of in Regular DJ School?
