Quinn is a master paranoid. This is coincidence. (Or something he contrived).
Quinn isn't all that paranoid. I hope it's a coincidence.

There’s a was a heck of a storm at the uplink site in Cincy. If you have a dish at your house, you know it is a factor. Put the tin foil hats away. Lightning may strike it.

Are we talking about Jim Quinn? The face you find when you look up "Conspiracy Theory" in a dictionary?

Of course he is all that paranoid.

It was only XM’s technical difficulties that raised suspicions.

I have heard it sever time between 6:25 and 6:30. They have cut to the news early or ran the emergency test over subjects of great interest. This is real.

If you don’t have XM and you are listening don’t be so stupid.

XM is in control of what has been happening, not Quinn.

but you get what you want....censorship!

Censorship can happen on any broadcast media, not just XM. I would tend to think this is a DJ (who is also a conspiracy nut) that is pulling a fast one on his listeners. Radio jocks do this sort of thing all the time.

Boortz had a great one about 15 years ago where he did a "live" broadcast from a skydiving center outside Atlanta where they were supposedly holding the "skydiving cat chasing championships". The idea was that they take up a bagful of cats, throw them out of the airplane and the skydivers try to catch them on the way down. A LOT of folks thought it was real. Even the local Humane Society got their panties in a wad......

Then, there was the time that he said, on April Fools day no less, that the Atlanta water system was laced with the deadly chemical "dihydromonoxide" (H2O). The head of the Atlanta water system even called his show claiming there was absolutely no dihydromonoxide in the Atlanta water system......that one was a riot!

America’s Talk is one of the Clear Channel programmed channels on XM. If the Huckanut was correct and CC is in Mitt’s corner, then why would they censor Quinn for bashing McCain?

Again it was all weather related unless you want to believe God is on McCain’s side and created the storm that knocked out that segment.

Quinn said, in response to a caller after the EBS test, that he doubted it was intentional, but suggested listening to the first hour repeat on XM as a test to see if it was intentional.

No, again do not speculate. You did not hear it. I did.

That’s been de-bunked. Other POW’s were aware of McCain’s presence the entire time, he was imprisoned. There’s enough in the immigration issue, that if people knew what McCain’s real position was, he’d be toast as he was last summer. Now, among Republican voters polled, 47% trust McCain on immigration, while Romney and Huckabee score in the 20’s or lower. Isanity.
