The usually profoundly boring “The Politics of Culture” on KCRW got a lot more interesting today, as artist Ed Moses used the word “bullshit” in response to a question posed by the indecipherable Edward Goldman and station queen/dragon lady Ruth Seymour. “I used to say 98% of everything is bullshit,” was his exact, on-air quote, which KCRW seemed to like so much that they podcast it unedited.
The irony, of course, is that Sandra Tsing Lo got fired for saying a magic word, possibly threatening the station’s license with the wrath of the FCC, according to mama Ruth. Perhaps Seymour should have fired herself?
