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 (Snerdly has introduced himself as an “African-American-in-good-standing-and-certified-black-enough-to-criticize-Obama guy,” and declared that he was speaking, “on behalf of our E.I.B. brothers and sisters in the hood.”); the role has become an occasional recurring feature. Some commentators, such as Conor Friedersdorf of The Atlantic, have criticized the segment as "ugly" and racist, particularly one in which Golden, as "Snerdley," gives a "translation" of an English monologue for the "brothers and sisters in the hood" in an urban black dialect.[1] In a 2017 interview with the Daily Caller, Golden dismissed the political notion of "privilege" based on skin color. "“Some people have the privilege of being born to good, decent, moral parents who pass along a moral code to be a good, decent, giving human being," he said. "Whether you are poor or rich, you live your life rich anyway because you understand the true blessings in life and the true blessings of God. That’s a privilege.”[2] 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.[3] From 1992 to 1998, Golden co-hosted (with Joel Santisteban) a political call-in show, The James and Joel Show, on WABC radio in New York.[4] From 1998 to 2001, Golden served as Vice-President for Programming at Talkspot.com, where he also hosted two Internet radio programs. He occasionally contributes written political commentary online. Golden was part of the production team on the Rush Limbaugh television program, which aired from 1992 through 1996. He attended City University of New York-Queens College from 1973 to 1976. Sources
