Cumulus Media, one of America's largest talk-radio companies, tells its hosts - including conservatives Mark Levin and Dan Bongino - they will be fired if they don't stop claiming election fraud

Cumulus Media is clamping down on claims about election fraud across their network of radio stations which feature right-wing talkers such as Mark Levin and Dan Bongino.

In a memo sent internally, executive vice president Brian Philips made clear that radio hosts will be fired if they start or continue to make baseless claims about election fraud.

'We need to help induce national calm NOW,' the memo read.

Call their bluff! All right wing radio types should send a letter telling them that if they are muzzled tehm, they will quit in mass. They can all sign it like the Declaration of Independence. Expect Levin to sign like John Hancock.

So if Cumulus wants their ad revenue to plummet to pocket change levels instantly, they better CHOOSE WIDELY.

Bongino debunked his part of this yesterday.

He doesn’t work for them.

This is the 60’s and 70’s crowd now at the prime of their power. There will be an up cycle of the 80’s crowd who remembers the Regan years then it will be all downhill from there. A slight bump of those who came to adulthood during Trump’s years but it will be a slight bump maybe not even noticeable.

Cumulus mgmt is insane if they think they can roll their talent like this

I saw a video on the Post site. The officer was part of a crowd shoving each other at the base of the terrace on the side of the Capitol where the would be ninjas (and who knows what side they were on) were trying to get in. A young man, judging by his walk, is crossing above on the terrace, and he picks up an empty fire extinguisher and tosses it over the wall without even looking and continues on his way. I say empty because he tossed it very easily with one hand, like throwing away trash. It falls into the crowd below and must have hit the officer’s anti riot helmet at this time. All the police were wearing helmets. I think it just have hit some other people as well, since the crowd was tightly packed.

I don’t know what happened after that.

However, the next afternoon, when the officer died of a stroke, the police spokesman actually said “no” when asked by the press if the stroke was the consequence of being hit on the helmet by the fire extinguisher. He said “no.” In other words, it sounds as if the man did not die of a brain injury, bleeding on the brain, a blood clot or anything head-injury related. A stroke is usually a whole different matter. He probably had high blood pressure.

In other words, nobody intentionally fought with and clobbered this officer with a fire extinguisher. And it’s not even clear who threw it...what side he was on, for example.

Tell Mark Levin and Dan Bongino to stop talking about this is like telling McDonalds to stop making hamburgers. Who the hell is going to listen to them if they stop talking about what their audiences want to hear?

Note to Cumulus, Fox, and anyone else who employs these talking heads: “Just elect Republicans in 2022 and ObamaCare will be repealed” is not going to cut it for the next two years.

It is mind boggling how these traitors keep pushing this phony narrative when we have proof that an international conspiracy took place by Obozo, with the help of the talians, the CIA, and a host of others to conduct a Coup d’état to rig the Nov. 3rd election

If true, Cumulus can change their name to Detritus.

And that is because no one really wants to listen to them if they are on other radio stations. /SARC

1570 AM in Flint (Cumulus owned) switched from conservative talk to oldies music on Jan. 1st.

So, they’ll not just cancel conservative talk show hosts, they’re cancelling talk radio.
