NEW: After Wendy Bell's comments on @KDKARadio questioning if millions of COVID19 deaths was worth slowing the economy, advertiser @OMFOriginal says "we obviously do not agree with" her statements & is investigating whether to continue advertising on show https://www.pghcitypaper.com/pittsburgh/wendy-bell-is-on-the-fence-about-millions-of-americans-dying-versus-cost-of-slowing-the-economy/Content?oid=17094066
Not only did Bell say "Should we bankrupt our country for 100,000 or even two million lives?" (which isn't possible, we can't bankrupt the country). She also compared the business closures and people wearing masks to stay safe as "socialism." https://www.pghcitypaper.com/pittsburgh/wendy-bell-is-on-the-fence-about-millions-of-americans-dying-versus-cost-of-slowing-the-economy/Content?oid=17094066
. @KDKARadio's tolerance for such comments isn't new. The station allows disinformation constantly. In Nov, Marty Griffin said “it is a lie” that living downwind of cracker plants could lower people's quality of life, despite studies showing the opposite https://www.pghcitypaper.com/pittsburgh/allegheny-county-executive-rich-fitzgerald-denounces-pedutos-anti-cracker-plant-stance/Content?oid=16108230
