...absolutely wonderful, and everyone who is involved in the preparation for the concert—and I appreciate that in my heart,” Palmieri said. Palmieri’s residency included “A Conversation with Eddie Palmieri” on April 13, moderated by host of WBUR-FM’s “¡Con Salsa!” José Massó, and a concert in Sanders Theatre with the Harvard Jazz Band and guest artist Brian Lynch. The Office of the Arts recognized Palmieri for his immense contribution to the formation...
...crazy-brave, but the nerdish dad seems to be titillated by these encounters. Crossing over, Rudd last week took his club act to the safer, anesthetized realm of morning television to grab the oldies. On Mornings with Kerri-Anne, Rudd spoke Mandarin, danced the rumba with his co-host, laid bricks, cooked with chocolate, dispensed marriage advice and mixed pap with politics. Next, Rudd flies to Washington. Can we avert World War III? Stay tuned...
...Rudd is usually the smartest guy in the room. In interviews he often talks down to his host and listeners.

It remains impossible to predict which instances of insult will stop being benign to American audiences and begin to offend. Amid the furor over Imus’s own misstep, we must acknowledge that the onus of accountability extends well beyond the shoulders...
Imus was, somehow, the highbrow incarnation of what has come to be known as the “shock jock,” the radio host whose flimsy moral fiber and gleeful coprolalia earn him the respect and adulation of the common folk. It took a handful of references to Hillary Clinton as “Satan” and “that buck-toothed witch” (epithets people across the country invoke daily for no reward at all) to win him 1.6 million listeners a week and the sponsorship from Bigelow...
