OK, everybody here knows that Clear Channel is one of the largest provider of outdoor advertising space (i.e. billboards) in the US, right? They rent the space to whoever wants to pay them for it, they are not responsible for the content of what's on their billboards......

Not that I'm a big defender of Clear Channel, or it's corporate policies/radio business, etc. They have conservative staions on the air, and they have liberal stations on the air. IMHO, I think the anger is misplaced here, it should be directed to the TV station that is advertised, not to Clear Channel itself.

Would you object if Clear Channel put up American Nazi Party holocause denial billboards, or would that be okie-dokie?

How about "Mexifornia Drivers License" billboards (the buck-toothed sombero man) with an admonishment for "all illegal alien beaners" to go home to Mexico?

Just another expression of free speech, ho-hum?

The outcry would be deafening, the billboards would be down in one hour, and you know it.

Yet we are supposed to just grin and bear it as blatant Reconquista billboards are rubbed in our American faces in America.
