| To me this is like keeping a player on the Wizards who's lost a leg. I don't get it. If she were interviewing Jesus Christ resurrected, I don't think I could listen... |

| It's just so strange that she stays on the air. If my interior decorator went blind one day, she would have my sympathy but I wouldn't hire her to design my next home. I wouldn't hire a wardrobe consultant who is clinically color-blind. Estee Lauder isn't hiring people who've permanently lost their sense of smell as perfumers. I don't get it. |

| I love DR's show still. Her voice is affected but it doesn't annoy me. I guess I shouldn't be surprised by the mean comments but sometimes the hatred on this site still does manage to surprise me. Y'all are just mean! |

I am so used to her voice, it doesn't bother me. Some days are worse than others. I love her topics and her guests. She's really so different in appearance than what you would think. I also thought she was an old lady.
Does anyone remember Damian from WHFS? His voice was really messed up after a motorcycle accident, but he earned his place in DC listeners' hearts. |

Beethoven composed beautiful music while he was death. |

This is the PP - Sorry - Beethoven was DEAF when he composed ... |

Yes, but Beethoven didn't try to SING his music when he was deaf.

I like DR but I CAN'T STAND Kojo! The stupid and inappropriate jokes, the ignorance ... just today he said noo-Cu-lar twice! When he did Kojo In your Neighborhood a couple of weeks ago, he repeatedly said Silver Spring was in PG County ...
I wish they'd take him off. I miss Derek McGinty. |

Disfiguring accident = No longer a supermodel. You can stay in the field as a photographer, fashion magazine editor, stylist, etc. but no one is going to enjoy looking at your face anymore and that enjoyment, or at least absence of pain, is a critical component of the job.
Not a particularly compelling interviewer either. |

True. But I don't think they would have fired him anyway as he was the owner of the station's son. His pauses were excruciating and played too much "Surrealistic Pillow" music, imo. |

| By now I don't mind her voice, but her show is just awful --- she goes for the most boring, plodding, predictable questions. The show is invariably much more interesting when hosted by one of her stand-ins. That time slot should be put to better use. |

| She did a segment on Spasmodic Dysphonia a number of years ago: http://thedianerehmshow.org/shows/2000-11-03/spasmodic-dysphonia |

| Love her!!! Listen carefully - I think she is able to ask hard questions because people (her interviewees) also have her typecast as a little old lady. Get beyond the voice and you'll find a diamond in the rough. |
