[IRCA] OT: Bernie Ward KGO-810 indicted

["Eric Floden" <eric.f99999@xxxxxxxxx>]

One of my favourite hosts . . . I am shocked

from KGO site

KGO night-time talk show host Bernie Ward was indicted in Federal Court
today on two counts of child pornography using the Internet. Ward's attorney
says the incidents are from more than four years ago and were a part of
research for a book.
  KGO's Operations Director Jack Swanson says, "Bernie Ward has been a
valued, long-time employee of KGO Radio. We were just recently made aware of
these serious charges and are surprised and concerned by their nature. As
the matter is currently pending in federal court, we will have no additional
comment at this time. A substitute host will do the 10pm – 1am, Monday –
Friday broadcast and the Sunday morning Godtalk broadcast."
