Anybody else up for a protest march on...say...NBC? I was just reading that Rush has lost so many sponsors, that on Friday’s show 77/80 ads were PSAs.

This weekend there are robo calls linking the GOP and Rush to “the war on women”...demanding Rush be taken off the air.

Anybody else think it’s time to get Maher off HBO? If Rush goes...all bets are off...we can boycott advertisers too...and there are more of us.

Just sayin’.

Right. They aren’t tame - they are lopsided!

What you said, Doughty One.

Americans are now routinely having to look to the British papers to get ANY sort of truth/competence in reporting of US news.

Our "journalists" are either cheaply bought or ignorant or more likely BOTH.

I'd sooner brag about being in street pencil sales than I would about being a "reporter" in the US MSM.

Ignorant little backward people.

Wonder what logical business decision would make a company quit advertising to 20M listeners?

If you figure that almost 50% of this country are takers then that really shrinks the target audience and a high percentage of potential customers are listening to Rush.

Knee jerk suicidal liberalism on display.

Does anyone want to claim my 20 years of military service?

You earned it and let's see if couch potatoes are willing to learn or just sit some more and let the media educate them OR wake up and learn on their own.

I agree about Newt. The GOP E and media hate him and I hate them! What you fought for, Newt has, is and will protect.

They put the one I posed this a.m. into bloggers and moved the one the author posted a couple of days ago into news?

This doesn’t make sense to me.

I wouldn’t consider her a blogger - she’s been published too many places.

Yes, we live in interesting times, don't we?

Pravda, once was a source for nothing but propaganda, is now more reliable than American state run media.

Many here look as though they are red blooded, Constitutional lovin' Americans and in fact, they are merely pretending.

Know what I mean?

Add Canada Free Press to the reliable, REAL news-reporting sources.

US traditional journalism and media are nothing more than an embarrassingly sorry joke.

It is said even NYT isn’t in it to make money but to change this country. Perhaps it can be said of advertisers, also. No one in it to make money would make such a rash knee jerk reaction. Unless it’s not knee jerk as it’s not about money but control of the host.

Tame? It’s Barack Obama’s lap dog!

Count on the foreign news to tell you the most facts about what’s happening in America. Yes, even Pravda.

True. I said lopsided before, lapsided is more appropriate.

Why not? Pravda or other foreign newspaper ...

Have you read or seen the national media discussing the apparently fraudulent document presented by Obama as his birth certificate?

Has ANYONE seen the actual paper document? A judge? The Congress?

Pravda rises a legit question: what is the media doing in America, other than kiss Obama’s pumps?

The president of the United States is accused of fraud, and the media isn’t interested? Don’t you find that strange?

BLOGGERS and CHAT is simply where FR moves articles that they want to go away. FR has been doing this with the “Birther” stories for some time. Much like the MSM.

Worse! They're humping his leg.

The "perfect crease" notwithstanding.

Still be proud of your service. The patriots left are thanking Gd for those like you. ALl you need is a commander in chief who believes in the Constitution. There is no US of A without the Constitution and you.
