Do radio stations have any moral obligation to their listeners? Imagine having to endure the below scenario on radio in the 21st century!
Announcer: We have another caller on the line?
Caller: Yes, good morning.
Guest: Good morning. How are you today?
Caller: I am not too bad.
Guest: You have some issues with your lower back, don’t you?
Caller: Yes, a little pain in the lower back.
Guest: I am working on it as we speak. Drink a little water right away. (Pause) Have you done that?
Caller: Yes.
Guest: You are feeling better now, right? The pain has gone?
Caller: Yes.
Guest: Come in and see me.
Caller: Okay.
I have only heard female callers. I wonder if there is any significance in that.

Bajans are 99% literate, but by the simple fact that this "show" continues (ie, they are making money), it suggests a lot of us are also 99% gullible. Reminds me of what a teacher once told me about "education": When done well, the objective is to teach us HOW to think, not WHAT to think, and education continues until one' last breath. Would be laughable, if hard-earned money was not being pilfered away.
