It was announced on Air America Radio, Jon Elliot's show tonight, that Randi Rhodes was attacked in a park in NYC walking her dog.
There's nothing on the news yet.
From what he said, she's in the hospital.
She was not on the air today, and they had the Lionel Show on instead.
This is why she was not on the air.
Pardon this short diary, but it's late at night and I wanted to get this out.
I wish I had more to offer on it as far as information.
You would think it would be in the News.
Much love to Randi, and I hope she's ok.
We do know ... she's tough.
A fellow blogger's account from the UK:
Sideshow - Uk Get well soon, Randi Rhodes. I don't usually have time to listen to her show but I tend to leave AAR on when I'm in front of my computer - but when I heard Lionel sitting in for her, I just turned it off. Sorry, I just can't listen to him. But right now I'm listening to John Elliot and he says Randi was attacked last night while she was walking her dog. She wasn't carrying a bag and was just in sweats, and she was beaten up pretty badly and had some teeth knocked out. Elliot is saying it sounds like it was neither a sexual assault nor a robbery and he suspects it was political. The way things are going, he could be right.
