"...looks like a UPS employee..."

A ‘conservative’ radio station caves to the mob.
I am no stranger to cancel culture — or what we know more commonly (and accurately, in my opinion) as censorship.
When I was one of a handful of conservatives on a liberal college campus, my peers on the left reported me to our resident advisor for “creating an unsafe environment” and demanded the administration step in to cancel speaker events I hosted through the College Republicans. They later would ask the university to revoke my degree. Throughout my six years as a political journalist and commentator, left-wing activists have tried every trick in the book to drive me out of the industry: digging up old tweets, demeaning my appearance and harassing my employers.
None of it has worked… until now.
About a month ago today, I posted a tweet during the State of the Union address poking fun at Vice President Kamala Harris’s outfit. Harris wore a chocolate brown business suit that was panned on social media — some users compared her to a Hershey’s chocolate bar, while others wondered why she wore the same color as her chair. I went for a UPS joke, featuring the company’s now retired slogan:
“Kamala looks like a UPS employee — what can brown do for you? Nothing good, apparently.”
No one had a problem with the tweet until a few days later, when I spoke critically of protests in favor of “trans kids” at the University of North Texas. A group of maniacal left-wing activists who want to chemically castrate children in the name of “gender affirmation” came after me. All of a sudden, the Kamala tweet was being re-framed as racist and dozens of Twitter accounts were bragging about contacting my employers about my “bigotry.”

UPS Employee would do a better job
Not a bad comparison - in my experience, the UPS folks break an awful lot of things they're supposed to be taking care of...
;>)
Harris’s brown outfit was not the hill to die on. I’ve seen far, far worse, usually in fashion shows.
I would assume that the programming on Cumulus is no longer worth a conservative’s time.
Yes. But being adverse to ‘brown’ as a matter of fashion is hardly ‘racist.’ I prefer white sneakers to black... same principle I’d guess? I must confess... that probably makes me ‘racist.’
I wonder if she will pick up Hillary’s Mao suits from the thrift shore.
That’s like a badge of honor.
The continuing communist purge knows no bounds...
Dan Bongino is still there, and Chris Plante. Plante has tweeted his opposition to the firing. Bongino is just staying because of his contractual obligation but doesn’t plan on staying after that - due to vaccination mandates at Cumulus...
Willie Brown’s Ho continues on her road to destruction!!!
Cumulus, like all corporations, is run by fear-driven corporate whores who would sell out their own families for the next raise or promotion.
The left has figured this out and plays it for all it’s worth.
The top executive and HR guy should be hanged. No apologies. I have had similar happen to me in jobs and have reached absolute end point.
Or on a First Lady.
Later that afternoon, just before 4 p.m., I received a call out of the blue from Jeff Boden, the vice president of Cumulus Washington, D.C, and Kriston Fancellas, the vice president of Human Resources.
Geez, I scrolled to that photo of Mooch, and now I have etching of her on my monitor screen.
“’D’I say it right? Diddye do good?”
Does no one of this generation use any critical thinking skills? That's not even a hard one. Geez.
Chris Plante is an embarrassment, anyway.
