I just heard that...surprised me alot, however what he said was along the lines of I bring greetings from oppressed conservative students and Free Republic then he was cut off...Not that bad.
With a 6 second delay we didn't hear what he said that got him dumped. Mentioning FR and then getting dumped for saying something bad makes FR look bad. That's why I suspect a DU'r.
What we heard was cut off because all the talk shows are on a delay.
Ah, but the callers are on a delay to protect against saying something ugly on the air. What you heard was most likely not the whole thing.
Hannitys show is on a 10 seceond delay. When Hannity hits the kill button he kills what was said in the previous 10 seconds.
That is why no one listening to the air signal would know what the guy said that caused Sean to hit the kill button.
Years ago there were certain words that if said on the air could cost the station its license. So live shows that put listeners on the air started using a 10 second delay.
What goes out over the air actually was done 10 seconds earlier. The kill button kills what is actually going out over the air. Thus if someone says someting that should not be broadcast, the air person has almost 10 seconds to push the kill button to prevent it from going out over the air.
They are on seven second delay, so we may never know what was said that caused them to "dump" that audio.
