James Golden, under the pseudonym "Bo Snerdley," serves as call screener, producer, and engineer for the syndicated Rush Limbaugh radio talk show. Since 2001 he has been a Producer/Executive for Premiere Networks (formerly Premiere Radio Networks), the largest radio syndication company in the United States. Although Golden works from a control booth off the air, a 2008 ''New York Times Magazine'' profile of Limbaugh reported that during the show, Golden "banters with and occasionally badgers Limbaugh via an internal talk-back circuit" (an IFB). On occasion, Golden has been accorded airtime on the program. In February 2008, Golden, who is black, was assigned (as Snerdley) a satirical cameo role by Limbaugh as the show's Official Criticizer of Barack Obama ("certified black enough to criticize"); the role has become an irregular recurring feature. He is a Senior Partner of Golden Creative Communications, LLC. In his early twenties, Golden worked at radio station WWRL as a Marketing and Research Director, and later served as the radio station's first Music Research Director.〔(Ambassador Speaker's Bureau bio )〕 From 1992 to 1998, Golden co-hosted (with Joel Santisteban) a political call-in show, ''James and Joel'', on WABC radio in New York.〔Michaelson, Judith, (Talk Radio: At the Mike, If Not White Lean Right: The trend toward conservative programming is yet another factor that is robbing minorities of key positions ), Los Angeles Times, August 23, 1993 ("()he hot new Sunday night team at WABC-AM is James Golden, who is black, a Limbaugh screener (known on the show as Bo Snerdley) who shares some of the host's views, and Joel Santisteban, Cuban-American and more to the center."〕 From 1998 to 2001, Golden served as Vice-President for Programming at Talkspot.com, where he also hosted two Internet radio programs.
