Browns’ radio affiliate drops the ball
Shame on WONE-AM 980, the Browns’ affiliate in Dayton, for giving disgraced former Bengals receiver Chris Henry a forum Wednesday to spew the usual nonsense about what a good guy he is.
And double shame on the radio station for caving in to the Henry camp’s demands and submitting questions in advance for approval, as Dayton Daily News Bengals beat writer Chick Ludwig revealed in his “Ludwig at Large” blog.
Henry, as if reading from a script, says the same things every time someone is dumb enough to put him on the air. And Wednesday was no exception as he blathered on about how he’ll never get in trouble again and how, if only we all could get to know him better, we’d all be more inclined to give him a break.
How many arrests are you up to now, Chris? Poor baby. Go away.
My favorite part of the interview was when Henry referred to the latest assault charge against him as “a little incident,” which is exactly how he phrased it on Sporting News Radio a couple of months ago, shortly after the Bengals kicked him off the team.
You can’t blame Henry for wanting to plead his case so he can get back to the NFL one of these days. But you can blame a radio station for putting him on the air and letting him call the shots.

Good point that responsibility should be on the radio station as well. Media outlets are too frequently given a free pass.By Chris

The Reason WONE puts Chris Henry on the radio is the same reason the DDN runs articles about Colieen Sullivan getting dumped. It sells, simple as that. We forget that media is a business.By statewaterheaterpriceSl
