Isn't that the guy who was adamantly opposed to multi-use trails, bike lanes, and high-speed rail?

Classy.

As one of Lew's closest friends (and a liberal to boot!), thank you Jadiaz for your comment.  Well said. I hope future comments are a little more compassionate.

No one's saying that you need to say things you don't really believe, or are phony or artificial. All anyone on here is saying  is why go out of your way to say something mean? If you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything. The guy is dead, taking jabs at him now is just low. You chose to come on and celebrate his departure from the airwaves by prefacing it with an I'm sorry he's dead comment. The however statement wasn't neccesary except to be a jerk.

I have to admit.  This is probably a great tribute to LL.  Senseless bickering that has nothing to do with the original topic.  RIP.

Lew Latto was an institution in this town. Sort of a local Paul Harvey. He was also a remarkable business man who has supported our economy for years with the radio stations he owned and the employees he hired to staff them. He was business savy, smart with a dollar and a welcome conservative voice in a bastion of crazy liberals. He was a program manager for WKLK before he graduated from High School! He came from an era that embraced wholesome values and real journalistic integrity. He carried that through to the day he passed. He will be missed and remembered fondly.

I don't see anyone making personal attacks upon  the recently deceased. Mr. Latto was a mildly controversial public figure and people are expressing their opinions about his public persona, or rather his radio show.

"It's shrimp night here at the Elbow Room at PDD"...what????

I'm just trying to figure out what you were going for with the "...at the Elbow Room at PDD" part.
