Libelous!

I heard it first from Emily Rooney (you know, Andy's daughter) on a WGBH "Beat the Press" promo tonight. Looks like Darby Conley or at least U.F.S. might be in for some legal trouble for refering to a sportscaster named "Lobel" as drunk.

As seen nationally:

"Lobel" was changed to "him" in the Globe version.

Apparently, they've changed the archived version.

Now online:

Why can't our dicussions be more like <a href="http://www.thenoiseboard.com/lofiversion/index.php/t80227.html">this</a>?

I cant seem to find the one mentioning Lobel anywhere, all I see is the "Knock Knock" Joke? Does anyone have more backgroung or images?

<h2>Lobelous!</h3>

I guess those image links weren't working, they do now.

Wow. I used to have a crush on him! He must like Fugazi.

Lobelous has been officially loaded into the Fagan dictionary
.
TGL-- can you add a 'edit the text of this page to category dictionary, or add Lobelous there?

Except, of course, he'd have to be one of those hypocritical, non-straight-edge Fugazi fans, obviously.

hypocritical FUGAZI/ Dischord fans rule.

One of my best binge drinking sessions ever @ UNH had the soundtrack of Dischord's "The Year in 7 Inches" and one Steve "Ravi"... awesome...

I Got Straight edge indeed.
