Clear Channel will never let him go, for a number of reasons:
1. He is too BIG a money maker for the company. And face it - money talks louder than any whining senator or congresscritter.
2. What ever happened to “free speech?” This is all about that, right? (all PC crap aside) If a company as large as Clear Channel knuckles under, what kind of example would that set ofr other media outlets?
3. Most broadcast news oriented companies love these kinds of controversies - gets them ratings.
I’ve been in the broadcast industry a long time and my estimation is that Rush will not be let go, no matter how much the liberal crybabies lie and cry. Just won’t happen, so don’t worry. Rush did nothing wrong or illegal to warrant his dismissal.
(PS - CBS let Imus go because they are SO in bed with the libs, it’s not funny. Likewise NBC. But I think he will come back as well).
- Pete
ofr = for
"nappy headed hoes" thats what happened to it.
I hope they do let him go. We could finally get him on satellite radio.
In this case with Rush Limbaugh we actually have a real case of censorship. But what is even worse is that they are trying to force him to apologize. They are trying to force him to say what they want him to say. Not only does Harry Reid piss on Rush Limbaugh's right of free speech he is acting like he's in the old Soviet Union.
By the way, moveon.org is a nonprofit corp. that has agreed to do certain things to maintain their tax free status. They even have to report their financials to the IRS and that information is public. Limbaugh is a private citizen in a private enterprise and he pays big bucks in the way of taxes. Big difference!
