Even Liberal Hosts Screw Up


A popular liberal talk show host in Seattle was canned when KIRO found out that he may have been involved in an insurance scam. The following item was reported on December 23, 2005 in Blatherwatch, a blog that covers the Seatle talk radio scene.

WEBB FACES CHARGES

After an investigation into alleged auto
insurance fraud, extremist Seattle talk show host
Mike Webb has apparently been charged with
criminal offenses, according to Blatherwatch, a
liberal talk radio blog.

For his scoop, Blatherwatch honcho Michael Hood
obtained public documents that detail the
allegations:

In papers filed Dec. 5 in King Co. Superior
Court, and obtained by BlatherWatch; KIRO talk
host Mike Webb (9p-1a) was charged with the crime
of Fraudulent Insurance Claim in an alleged $5982
scam against a car insurance company.

According to the Court's Superform, Michael
Kenneth Webb, 50 years old a KIRO radio talk show
host and a Virgo, is also the subject in an
investigation of forgery.

The papers were gleaned from public court
records. Charges were generated after an accident
June 28 involving Webb in his 2000 Lexus GS-3 and
his subsequent alleged dealings with GEICO.

A Certification For Determination of Probable
Cause describes in detail the fruits of the
investigation by Seattle Police Detective Randal
Woolery and GEICO investigator Bill Brown that
led to the criminal charges against the
flamboyant talk host.

Webb is the same liberal host who last year
demanded President Bush and several of his
Cabinet members face "execution" on war crimes
charges. Previously, we've written extensively
about Webb and his background.
