Today on Ankarlo Mornings, it’s all about the Phoenix New Times. This time is it not because of our good friend Stephen Lemos either. The owners of the New Times were arrested by the Maricopa Sheriff’s Office over something to do with Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s home address. A former Times employee posted the address in a column a couple of years ago. Was there a treat against the Sheriff? In addition, the court documents alleged The New Times leaked grand jury information. Darrell talks to Jim Cross from the KTAR news room and legal analyst Tim Powers. The charges were just dropped by Maricopa County Attorney Andrew Thomas. Also on today’s show Darrell wonders just how liberal San Francisco is and did he get duped by Ellen over the dog adoption story?

So the University of Arizona student newspaper runs a cartoon offensive to Jews. And it just might be the worst cartoon ever written. See for yourself here, http://ktar.com/?sid=617254&nid=336. But, what is it with today’s college kids? Are they just completely insensitive or what? There seems to be a massive culture divide between generations. Also on the show today, Darrell asks which album or movie you would pay extra for. Radiohead is letting people chose how much to pay for their album. Darrell also addresses the Blackwater situation in Iraq.
Friday, September 28, 2007: Darrell Ankarlo is a believer in the first amendment and it’s protection of freedom of speech. But, he has to admit he is pushed to his limits when a Flagstaff t-shirt maker is putting dead soldiers names with captions that say “Bush lied” and “They died” superimposed over the names of our heroes. So maybe is it time we made a t-shirt for this guy. Also, on today’s Ankarlo Mornings, Darrell plays a song by a group called Tijuana No! called Stolen by Gunpoint. You can see the video in the post below! It’s scary to say, but there are groups that believe this and will do anything to take it back. In the ten o’clock hour, Darrell talks to Leslie Talbot, author the Singular Existence. Are married people treated differently than singles? Leslie believes so. You can read more about her here, http://www.singularexistence.com/. Darrell also talks to Eddie Johanson from The Credit Security Group about credit scores and repairing them. More information about Eddie and his group can be found here, http://www.creditsecuritygroup.com/pages/index.html. In the final hour, Darrell talks about students in Boulder, CO. Some of them don’t want to recite the Pledge of Allegiance the way it is written. They have come up with their own and read it in their high school’s court yard. The new pledge reads, “I pledge allegiance to the flag and to my constitutional rights with which it comes. And to the diversity in which our nation stands. One nation, part of one planet, with liberty, freedom, choice and justice for all.”
Monday, September 24, 2007: I think we have all heard that Columbia University is one of the most respected schools in all of America. But, did that perception change a little today after they invited Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to speak there? Or is this just about free speech? Darrell Ankarlo reacts and carries portions of his speech on today’s Ankarlo Mornings. In addition, Darrell wonders why the United Auto Workers Union is picketing General Motors when foreign auto makers are making big gains in the U.S. And should Kurt Warner start next week over Matt Leinart, Darrell say yes! Listen below.
Wednesday July 25, 2007: It was a very busy show today. Darrell was relieved Ward Churchill from the University of Colorado was fired, but it brought up a free speech debate. In addition, Darrell talked to Phoenix Magazine Editor Ashlea Deahl, Sheriff Joe Arpaio updated us on his illegal immigration hotline and a terrorism expert talked about the possible “dry run” made by terrorists in our airports.
