Jonetta Goes Down the Memory Hole: A minute in to the Politics Hour on WAMU-FM, host Kojo Nnamdi makes no mention whatsoever of the firing of his former co-host, Jonetta Rose Barras. Filling in for her is NewsChannel 8 host Bruce DePuyt, who is currently talking about…team tennis. —Mike DeBonis

Although I often found myself in disagreement with Jonetta’s opinions, I will miss her DC expertise on the Politics Hour - I am wondering if the recent shift away from DC politics has anything to do with the sudden dismissal.

Could be. I wondered if there was a connection too. No one covers DC anymore. I will miss her very much. Is she still w/ the Examiner at least?

It was nice to enjoy the Politics Hour without the incessant giggling and diatribes of Jonetta.
