No doubt, but its the “what’s next” that bothers me and you better be afraid of that if you value your freedom of speech.

This can lead to speech codes imposed by the corporate people to censor radio. Codes that equal the power of the Fairness Doctrine.

And if Sharpton’s line about what’s “acceptable” in broadcasting were to become official government policy (imagine it extended to the internet) then freedom for all of us is lost.

What kind of Freedom of Speech is it to call a Basketball team , nappy headed hos? If you say it, then you are accountable for it.

“What is next” is the true fear. And by your name I can tell what you think. I am in total agreement. If they go after Rush then we must rise up. He has twenty million dedicated listeners. And for the advertisers that’s a whole lot of people to offend by pulling your ad’s!
