    Horoscopes on radio shows? Made up on the spot or stolen from google. And I’m willing to bet the ones on newspapers and websites are too.

    I wonder how many astrology girlies would have their hearts broken by this.

    Learned this when I interned at a radio station. (My field is communications; Journalism + Marketing.)

      I’m curious what anyone who truly believes in those horoscopes thinks is going on. Do they assume the Skippy and Dippy Morning Show crew have a licensed fortune teller casting star charts and meditating in a back room somewhere while the rest of the guys are giving away concert tickets and making prank phone calls to celebrities?

        I don’t know. One of my friends in college was an astrology girl but I made a point to not ask her for details (OR tell her about the thing I learned at my internship–)
