But if that source is reliable, he wasn’t “yanked off” the air, he had himself removed because he wanted out of his contract so he could go run for office again.
The source further suggests that he may have purposely defied the station regarding speaking about Islam so they would HAVE to fire him.
I’ll say this — Grandy was extremely anti-radical-Islam on his show, much more than Chris Core ever was, more than even Michael Graham was. If he was trying to get himself fired, he did a great job of it and of exposing the radical islam problem to his listeners at the same time.
It’s early to know what the truth is. But Fred had ample opportunity to leave the show last year, when his charming senior partner Andy Parks was let go and Fred’s own job hung by a hair. This doesn’t have the feel of a brief stunt put on to get him out of his contract; Fred and his wife have been speaking out against radical Islam for quite a long time.
If Grandy discussed RADICAL Islam, and CAIR is supposed to be the face of “MAINSTREAM” Islam, then why would CAIR have a problem with Grandy talking about RADICAL Islam?
(Admittedly, I have not heard CAIR profess to represent “mainstream” Islam, so who knows?)
