More reaction from WGAN facebook
—Keep Rush on your station! Liberals will stoop to all levels to dismiss the words of truth and justice. Wake up, Mainers.... Our state doesn’t need to follow the rhetoric of the rest of the countries media hype......let Maine lead!
—Freedom of speech. Remember these groups insisting you take Rush off the air are as anti American as you can get. Their ultimate goal is destruction of everything in our society. Never give in to the bullies who are so intolerant of others opinions.
(I will add, freedom of choice. Those who don’t like it can turn to—oh wait, their prog. talk station flopped and is playing oldies now. OK, don’t like Rush I guess you can tune to taxpayer funded NPR...—rr)
—As long as your radio station continues to support Rush Limbaugh,
I will no longer tune to WGAN...This is not about free speech, this is about supporting an ignorant bully who has a public forum from which to spew his venom...If you condem bullying in schools, why do you allow it on your station?
(Um, did you hear what libtalker Randi Rhodes said?
Conservative women shouldn’t be allowed to have ovaries?)
My mom belonged to a Pro Life group which tried to organize an advertiser boycott of the Norman Lear CBS sitcom Maude in 1972 after they ran an episode where she has an abortion.
Norman Lear, his production company and CBS all launched a full-throated counterattack claiming Free Speech. They called the boycott a "bullying tactic" and practically accused my mom and her friends of taking a crap on the US Constitution.
Funny how their outlook changes when they're on the opposite side.
