Another example of Liberals failing to learn from their previous mistakes.
Sixteen years ago, or so, Morton Downey Jr., another conservative talk show host in Sacramento, California, was removed from the air because of complaints by Liberals about a perceived "ethnic slur." The complaints were in reference to the on-air comment by the conservative host where he used the word "Chinaman".
Lead by then Mayor Robert Matsui (now Congressman Robert Matsui, a DemocRat, what else), a Japanese-American who was not by any stretch of the imagination a "Chinaman" or even Chinese or Chinese-American, the carefully orchestrated complaints lead to the removal of Morton Downey Jr. from KFBK's roster of talk show hosts, despite Downey's tearful on-air apologies.
Despite the fact that the "slur" was a common reference to persons of Chinese ancestry in the area (most people did not even know it was offensive to such persons) and that the usage was by no means intended as a perjorative, within a week Downey was history at KFBK.
HIs replacement was an unknown radio DJ named Rush Limbaugh... and the rest is history.
