radio broadcaster?

Does anyone else find the article title a bit odd and a bit of an Americanism? I personally would not refer to him as a radio broadcaster but a talkback host. That's what he's notable for. Has this been discussed before? TarnishedPath^talk 09:53, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Yankee, and welcome to Picnic Glen! I don't have a trouble with either. Be bold, young man and edit. 115.64.95.16 (talk) 13:36, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
