It’s currently one of the featured posts over on Birmingham Weekly’s Mixed Media blog - Kyle’s piece about Frank Matthews’ “exchange”with Matt Murphy on Murphy’s February 8th broadcast resulting from John Archibald’s* blog post on February 7 about Larry Langford’s mayoral campaign’s media dealings. Now you can hear how it went down.
WAPI-AM has posted the audio from this exchange on-air; listen up and let us know what you think:
*Incidentally, I’ll finally get a chance to meet the Birmingham News columnist when he and I join Wade Kwon as panelists at today’s PRSA meeting beginning at 11:45 a.m.

WOW!!!
Who is going to hold the mayor accountable for this?
Why are people allowing themselves to be bought and sold through the media?
Matt’s going to get blasted for calling him an animal and a disgrace to his race, but will the story end there?

…….Wow. Frank Mathews looks like a fool in that interview. Isn’t this the same guy that said all of those hateful, racist things about Patrick Cooper?

I’m afraid it will. Murphy didn’t come off a whole lot better in that exchange than Frank Matthews did. Too bad he didn’t sit back and let Frank blather. I’d have like to hear the entire tirade. Now Frank can — and will — deflect attention from his unethical behavior by going after Murphy.
