Should Parents Be Charged For The Actions Of Their Children?
Today, Dom led off the Dom Giordano Program by revealing details surrounding a shooting on Roosevelt Boulevard, in which a group of assailants opened fire on another car after rear-ending the vehicle.
Giordano discusses the climate that has taken over the city, asking listeners how they would respond if they were rear-ended in Philadelphia. Then, Dom reflects on his interview with Dr. Oz, forecasting whether he believes the TV mogul will have a chance in the Pennsylvania Senate race, and reveals that Dr.
Oz is a big basketball fan, suggesting that the two should face off in a 1-on-1 basketball game. After that, news breaks surrounding the school shooting in Michigan. Dom plays back a clip of Oakland County, Mi. prosecutor Karen McDonald announcing charges brought on both the shooter and his parents, in which she tells why the parents have been charged with involuntary manslaughter. Dom is in favor of charging parents for the actions of their children, but producer Dan brings a caveat to the table, and listeners chime in.
Dr. Nicole Saphier Joins For Omicron Update, NJ Rep. Peterson Explains Vaccine Passport Fight in Trenton
In today’s second hour, Dom Giordano leads off by continuing the conversation from last hour, asking listeners whether or not they believe parents should be charged for the actions of their children after charges were announced for the parents of the perpetrator in a school shooting in Michigan. Callers offer their opinion, including parents who teach firearm safety to their children, and debate with Dom whether parents are at fault for a situation such as the one we saw unfold.
Then, Dr. Nicole Saphier of Fox News, rejoins the Dom Giordano Program. First, Dom asks her about her successful book, Panic Attack: Playing Politics with Science in the Fight Against COVID-19, bringing in current events, asking the Doctor how she would deal with Omicron if she were in Dr. Fauci’s role. Dr. Saphier tells of her strategy, stressing the importance in transparency and science when announcing and determining solutions for public safety. Then, Giordano and Dr. Saphier get into a conversation discussing whether children should get the vaccination, to which Dr. Saphier offers both the pros and cons of vaccinating children.
Then, New Jersey Representative Erik Peterson rejoins the Dom Giordano Program, to discuss his headline-making move yesterday in Trenton. Yesterday, Peterson and other New Jersey Republicans, made a stand against a Democratic policy that requires all in assembly to provide proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test. Republicans in Trenton marched past New Jersey State Troopers who were checking vaccination status, taking their seats on the floor. Peterson explains why the New Jersey GOP decided to take this course of action, and explains the underlying reasoning behind the protest.
Dom Giordano’s 2021 Local Person of the Year
In today’s final hour, Dom Giordano announces his 2021 Local Person of the Year after a week-long event in which he asked for listeners to both nominate and vote on who they believe deserve the title.
After tabulating the votes, it was determined that Dr. David Damsker would be awarded the Local Person of the Year, but regrettably due to politics, Dr.
Damsker was unable to join the Dom Giordano Program to accept the award.
Giordano plays back clips of Dr. Damsker, further explaining reasons behind the nomination and award, and tells how notable the other nominees were, reflecting upon the years of Edward Durr, Steve Keeley, and Clarice Schillinger. Then, after playing his Money Melody for the day, Giordano moves into a discussion about the political scene both nationally and locally, discussing the chances of Dr. Oz in the Senate race and other Republicans who have thrown their hat into the ring.
