Earlier in the day, the person answering the phone at the radio station said the decision was from “higher ups” which might mean the station owner and/or Barry. That has not been clarified.
The station owner does not appear to have an email or website. If you call their public number you can not leave a voice mail.
Station Owner:
Vox Communications, LLC owns and operates radio stations in Virginia, Massachusetts, and Texas. The company was founded in 2005 and is based in South Burlington, Vermont.
1233 Shelburne Road

Most lefty talk radio has the charisma and mass appeal of random static. I bet some stations will try to fill the three hours with an ersatz “conservative-lite”. But it wont be the same.

Really? Is that what he said?
Disingenuous much?

This is a signal that the radicals are moving to silence free speech while we
are divided. I think Rush needs Newt on his side since he can stand up to the media. Rush can't fight this alone.

I don’t see why. Let another station pick Rush up in the same market, and pummel this guy in the ratings. Sweet justice.

Heh. My wife took the pill for a good long time. If that’s what he said, pretty sure I’d be more offended.
He said this girl was a slut. He shouldn’t have said it. Stupid, thoughtless statement ... but, don’t get hysterical.

You’re omitting key aspects of his point. What are you, a journalist?

I was in Boston the day after the Super Bowl. I heard two college-age females talking loudly. One said she was drunk by halftime and “woke up in some guy's bed...I didn't even know who he was....and he told me the next morning the Giants won.” Now, granted, that could mean more than one thing but is that something that should be stated out in the open in front of total strangers? Some decorum please.

This radio station serves a rural area near the Berkshires of western Massachusetts. There are a few colleges in the area. Guess how they vote?Unexpected! ;)

Northampton is the Lesbian capitol of the world.
Seriously doubt an AM station can carry anyone with equivalent ratings.
Ummm... Peter Barry....buh bye!
To: SnakeDoctor
I will pay to listen to Rush.

When the left takes back all of the horrible things they’ve said about Sarah Palin, then maybe I’ll give a frog’s fat a@@ about what Rush Limbaugh says.

I don't know why Fox has that goose egg buffoon Imus on in the morning. I wanted to knock his crooked eyes straight when he called Rush a fat loser this morning. You would think that loudmouth blowhard would keep his mouth shut since he knows what it's like being attacked by the self righteous hypocrites on the left. He's such a dirtbag.

Losing advertisers is one thing but when stations start to drop him that is a bit more serious.

May want to take another look. Non-hysterical people don’t resort to false paraphrases to make their point.
