Snowing payola

My knowledge of the music and radio industries is essentially nonexistent. Bush's knowledge of how to defeat terrorism may be the only issue with less savvy than my music/radio industry understanding.

But I know a snow job when I see it.

This hack at the Times is telling us that enforcing laws against music radio payola is bad.

Why, pray tell?

Because payola has always been around and like gravity, it can't be defeated.

Gawd.
