I'm thinking that it was likely local programming, and KPCC has call-in shows (Talk of the City - local, Talk of the Nation - which is NPR, Air Talk - local) while KCRW has "editorial" shows (Which Way LA - local, To the Point - national version of the same show)...
I'm not excusing the local programming, but KPFK has the same thing. Only they tend to bash people who don't agree with them. I have heard it. They also come across as extremely intolerant.
But that's in my experience only. Your mileage may vary.
Maybe it was Which Way LA- and a particular commentator, whose name I forget. But that in mind, I guess it's a good wake-up call too. Just because it's LA doesn't mean we're a happy family, and the same show has good points to it (I'm just really REALLY bad with names, which is embarassing).
As for KPFK: Honestly, I've never listened to KPFK, although a group I work for is 'all about KPFK.' Considering your description (and that of my mummy's), I'll probably steer clear away from KPFK though. Thx for the heads up.
Btw, while not informative, I love 'Metropolis' on KCRW, and just had to share. It's cool to compare things with other locals, so thanks for the feedback.
Thank you. It's an apod picture I cropped down and flipped over because it looked better this way. *g*
Do you mind if I friend you? There isn't a disclaimer on my journal, but it's friends only and locked down pretty tightly. Oh, yes, and word of warning: I'm opinionated. *g*

Your icon is lovely, by the way.
