* Charlie LeDuff (Twitter @Charlieleduff/Facebook Charlie LeDuff) and M.L. Elrick (Twitter @elrick/Facebook ML ELRICK/Instagram ml_elrick) are reunited — or is it reignited? — at Red Shovel Network HQ. Shawn Windsor (Twitter @ShawnWindsor) is here, too, while Brandon McAfee (Twitter @Pro_Duecer) keeps things on track as Marc Fellhauer takes care of business elsewhere.* THE STRAIGHT DOPE:  Shawn launches an offensive, defending the Detroit Free Press after Charlie blasted it in a column for Deadline Detroit. * ML is trying to set the stage for the discussion as Shawn butts in to say “let’s set the stage.”* The boys discuss sensational storytelling versus sensationalism.* ML calls Charlie out for not calling ML before Charlie called out the Free Press’ reporting on Kwame Kilpatrick’s text messages.* ML reads the offending passages from Charlie’s column, while disclosing that he may return to the Free Press — but he adds that’s not why he’s defending the landmark work he and Jim Schaefer did at the Free Press.* Shawn and Charlie discuss Free Press editorial page columnist Brian Dickerson’s column that praised Charlie as “whip smart,” before coronating him “the clown prince of Detroit journalism.” * Charlie apologizes to ML … but has no regrets about slamming Dickerson.

Then the show deteriorates into a love-fest. Boy, this episode got soft fast!!!* ML appeals to listeners to support Clark Park. You can learn more and give here.* THE GREAT DEBATE: After nearly an hour of debate, ML makes the executive decision to put The Great Debate on hold until next week.* GEEK OF THE WEEK: Advertisers spend a lot of time and effort on commercials to deliver a specific message. So what the hell was up with that Olay ad? And a few others. The overpaid nitwits who came up with them are this week’s honorees. Brandon helps explain why.* ROOM 7609: Echo & The Bunnymen don’t belong here because anyone who knows anything about good music knows all about them, and all of their music is well-known for its excellence.
