A local family-owned radio network has lost advertising since Monday when a morning show personality on its AM station was charged by state Democrats with racially slurring Barack Obama.
Zeb Bell, 60, a conservative talk show host who has leased air time on Rupert-based KBAR AM for eight years, denies he made any racial remarks targeted at the presumptive Democratic nominee. But he admits his guest and friend Frosty Wooldridge did.
Thomas Garcia, an Obama supporter, circulated an e-mail alleging that Bell called Obama the "black Negroid Barack Hussein Obama" on his Monday morning show. More than a dozen irate Magic Valley residents, who had read the e-mail but had not heard the show, complained to Bell, he said. Three long-time advertisers have threatened to cancel their spots unless the station removes Bell from the air, station owner Kim Lee, of Lee Family Broadcasting, said.

Free Speech only applies if its approved by loud mouth dems in this election it seems..
Is not “negroid” a sort of scientific term?
“black Negroid Barack Hussein Obama”
Well it is a fact he is all of those and more.
They left out he is pro Communist/Marxist.
On a lighter note I read this morning that Obama is courting the Conservative vote that McDaddy McCain scorns. Not that’s funny.
What's the difference?
Does making it un-PC to discuss race (if that benefits the Left) now mean that race no longer exists?
Yes, there’s going to be a lot of that this fall.
Wait until the southern states get going.
Southern States? I experienced more discrimination in the North thanin the South. Northern discrimination is more subtile. I’d rather deal with someone who is in your face than someone who tries to stab you in the back. At least I know where it’s coming from.
My 90 year old Grandmother says the South would never elect a black man. I don’t know how much more blunt you can be.
She did say the same about a woman.
Let me get this straight.....folks who live in Magic Valley are upset about comments made about Barack the Magic Negro? Now THAT’S funny.....
Where’s the beef? He calls whites ‘whity’
Hypocrites all.
