Hugo Schwyzer with Glenn Sacks

Lauren

I’m currently listening to Hugo Schwyzer talk to Glenn Sacks. Wow. Just wow. I don’t think Sacks could be any more patronizing to Hugo as a “male feminist.”

Sacks just interrupted Hugo by turning off his microphone. Nice. The advertising is unbelievable – talk about targeting groups. Every ad is for men who have lost their jobs, men going through divorce, or men in custody suits. Even lawyers for men accused of rape. Not kidding. Oftentimes, the ads are read by women.

Ampersand of Alas, A Blog just called in. This is craziness.

If you hurry, you can listen to it now.

  1. I listened to it too. I thought the ads were the whole point of the show, as there are so many frequent commercial breaks, there isn’t any time to get to even skim the surface of issues, let alone get to the heart of them. The point of the show is to get people to listen to the lucrative ads. I thought the tone of the ads were baldly “ambulance-chasing”.

    Hugo was a good sport about it, and I’m surprised Sacks let Amp on the air.

  2. I too was very glad Amp called in and got some good points on the air. Honestly, in hind sight, I wonder how much good appearing on a show like this does, when all one has time to do is get a few quick lines in and brace for the next attack…

    Thanks for the plug!
