Disgraced former U.S. Rep. Mark Foley is now a full-fledged radio talk show host!
After his recent tryout garnered some of WSVU-Seaview 960 AM’s best ratings, Foley starts a weekly gig Nov. 3.
Seaview General Manager Chet Tart tells me Foley, who resigned from the U.S. Congress in 2006 after his blue text messages to young male pages appeared online, will be on the air from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. every Tuesday.
“It’s been a very positive experience for the station,” Tart said. “He’s been able to get guests like (know-it-all TV talking head) Gloria Allred and higher-ups at ACORN.”
With lawyer Allred, the former Republican pol discussed late-night TV host David Letterman’s own sex scandal.
“It was how the sex stuff affects the workplace,” Tart said. “It’s a good topic.”
While the North Palm Beach station doesn’t subscribe to ratings organizations, Tart said the station’s Web site has shown spikes of 40,000 extra visitors when Foley’s on. That’s the site’s second-highest number, behind Joe Raineri’s Cup o’ Joe show weekday mornings.
“We’ve tracked a lot of traffic outside South Florida for Mark,” Tart said. “Places like Washington, D.C., New York City, North Carolina and even Burbank, Calif.”
As for Foley getting paid (he didn’t receive money for the tryouts), “we’re working on it,” Tart said. “We’re negotiating for three or four sponsors.”
Lambiet,
When you write a story about Bill Clinton, do you start it with–Disgraced….
Would not even cross your mind would it?
His actions went miles deeper than text messages. You are a hypocrite. People see you for what you are. That includes the Post.
It’s typical of the state-run media. Every article about Trent Lott no matter the topic will forevermore mention his comments about Strom Thurmond, while most articles about Ted Kennedy will never mention Chappaquidick or his notorious philandering or his millions in dollars of payouts to the women he abused.
Its amazing the an Alleged Creepy Perv just will no go away….just looking for another soft job.
This is why he is called disgraced though…alleged IM exchanges from foley to a young male below:

Mark the pedophile now has his own radio show - great - put Larry Flynt on after him, then get Jim Baker to follow him, then get the porn slut teacher Leah Lust (Tiffany Shepard) to follow him and you’ve got a prime time line up of degenarate idiots whose opinions should matter to no one. Foley can only do the show one day a week, he’s very busy now carrying on affiars with surfer boys at the Lake Worth Pier every day, getting action in his car parked on the north side under the trees at the park. And by the way, Foley does swallow.
Wow Truthman…you sound like you know from first hand knowledge
Aint this just peachy! Now we have Rush for the wackos and Foley for the Pedifiles. Yes, talk radio has surely been flushed down the toilet.
Someone, please, pinch me, I am dreaming……Only in America….I am so glad for television, I do not listen to the radio….
Thomas, you go boy!!!!……yeah! we all know now that you are Republican…..America what a country!
republican foley a child predator.. gets own show.. pill.. no differant than doctor shopping pill poppin rush ! hey rush.. what u doing with all that viagra coming back to us from dominic republic? (know for child prostitution ??
.
ATTENTION, All Idiots….. Rush has more a following than anybody you’ll ever know !! You Liberal freaks needing to talk about Doctor Shopping, drugs, whatever you wish to pounce on Rush about….remember one thing….He wipes his Azz with you people and could care less what you think…..You fools lie for free while Rush gets paid Millions of dollars to unbury the truth and make a total AZZ out of you Liberal Morons! Did you ever notice Oxycontin didn’t phase his work or ethics one bit ??? No, you were busy CRYING when he put you in your Liberal Pinko Moron Place on his talk show station making his Millions and paying his help dearly uncovering truthful readings……I’m done, GO TO HELL…..And don’t forget your Buddy Billy Clinton was Getting Oral Sex and couldn’t admit it ! Republicans at least tell the truth when confronted !! You liberal Morons have way too much to hide and ZERO FACTS ! Please, fall off the face of my EARTH ! Mark Foley goofed up once, next time your kids do something wrong, are you going to kill them or talk bad about them on these Posts ? You good for nothing double standard FREAKS !!
The guy’s a faggot pedophile…why the H*ll are you wasting time on him???????????/
Bill Clinton did not engage in sexual innuendo with a minor, the only reason Foley was not charged with a crime is that the Republicans who were in control of congress at the time would not release his computer files, I do not believe the Democrats would have either, they all protect each other.
Mark Foley did a very good job while in office.Some people just can’t stop barking mean things at him!!
I have kMark for years and look forward to listening to him on your radio station . and by the way I am STRAIGHT. GOOD LUCK MARK!!!!
Joe M…..take it ez buddy…I know you’re very frightened and Rush is your hero and all, but every dog has his day….You sound like you need to get some help and fast.
Democrat hero, Obama, has hired a “safe” school czar, Kevin Jennings, who when a student told him he was having sex with an older man; Jennings FAILED to report it.
That’s what the election of Obama has wrought…creeps in the White House who are making school policies for the entire nation.
When you elect trash you get trash. Just the start toward Nambla.
Wow I will never run for public office if my entire life goes into this meat grinder called media.
I know Mark in person, he’s such a nice guy, he accomplished a lot while in office and many people in West Palm are still very thankful for that. Everybody deserves a second change and I’m happy he got it. To all people that keep barking I’d like to know what you have done that we don’t know…
