I agree with all of you, but watch how freedom of speech dries up if (when?) the sponsors start catching heat. ESPN has already expressed regret when they knew in a pre-show meeting exactly what was going to be said.

We just lost a wildly popular conservative radio announcer in the Rochester market for a dumb comment perceived as racist. His punishment was 2 days suspension, then 5, then diversity training. Drip, drip, drip. He was fulfilling all the above plus two apologies. He wrote "Whose Side Are You On" on his personal website and was fired within hours. http://lonsberry.com/writings.cfm?story=1242&go=4

Today's paper indicated the sponsors bailed when threatened with a boycott by the Af. Americans, clergy and libs.

A deadly game is being played with Rush. Our outrage has to outweigh the dark side.

"Our outrage has to outweigh the dark side."

I don't know what in the world that means.

Look, I'm all for Rush exposing the hypocrits in the press. It is entertaining. The most entertaining thing about this whole ordeal is that Rush has the collective media's panties in a bunch and some of us are just having a grand ole time watching them try to publicly pull those panties out of their private crevices.
