My email to Chris Berry:
Michael Graham said nothing wrong and his suspension is costing WMAL audience. He should be reinstated immediately.
It is with great sorrow that I see your station cave in to the pro-terrorist organization CAIR. While I do not agree that all Muslims are the enemy, the statement that Muslim leaders (most of them anyway) are complicit in terrorism is accurate. Perhaps they support it, perhaps they are scared, but they do nothing to condemn it or to stop it. (There was one brave Imam in Spain who put out a fatwa on Osama bin Laden, but he is the rare exception.)
To suspend Grahm for doing just what you hired him to do -- express controversial opinions -- undermines the very foundation of talk radio. Perhaps you should go back to playing standards. There's much less controversy.
Graham should be reinstated immediately, and I am not listening to WMAL or supporting your advertisers until that happens. (I can get Rush and Sean elsewhere if I so choose.)
I sent this email to Randall Bloomquist at WMAL, with copies to the advertisers and Bcc to Michael Graham and to CAIR:

Now I think I'll start calling them.
