There's got to be something behind this, but what it might be isn't immediately apparent. For some reason, Daily Caller's running a series of clips this week of an "exclusive interview" with the Mouth of the Columbia, Lars Larson. Love him or hate him, it must be admitted that he's done remarkably well; having gone from a daily four-hour stint as a local talk show host in Portland to building out a statewide network of affiliate stations that push his program into parts of all of the states surrounding Oregon - and gaining a nationwide audience as well.
It's down to a lot of hard work; few people are willing to put in the 12 or so hours every day it takes to accomplish something like that.
Still, it seems kind of weird for the DC to be pushing their interview with him as they are.
