Why Isn't Randi Rhodes Syndicated?


A TAKE BACK THE MEDIA ACTION ALERT

"...there are very few voices like mine, and that you know voices like mine don’t get syndicated on Clear Channel because of guys like Rush Limbaugh...I have actually heard that Rush has said that he would take his show elsewhere if they did anything with mine."

Randi Rhodes, in a WJNO Radio interview with Oliver North

There are many liberal voices on radio, and possibly the most compelling is Randi Rhodes. She hosts the top-rated show on her station, pulling better numbers than even conservative Rush Limbaugh, whose program airs directly before hers every day. She has proven to be a tenacious defender of the liberal viewpoint, and she's damned entertaining in the process.

So why does Clear Channel refuse to syndicate Randi Rhodes? Why do they assume that there is no room on their syndication roster for an opposing view to the conservative ranting of Rush Limbaugh?

We at Take Back The Media think it's time the question was asked.

Listed below are most members of Clear Channel Communications' corporate board. We urge you to email Lowry Mays and the rest of the board and ask why they see fit to stifle one of the most unique and eloquent liberal voices in this country.

Be courteous and polite, but ask the question firmly: Why does Clear Channel refuse to syndicate Randi Rhodes? And if you get a response from members of the Clear Channel board, send it to us. We'll publish their responses here on the site. Don't you want to know what their reasons are?

For those of you unfamiliar with Randi's work we have both the mp3 and the transcript of her methodically skewering Oliver North's ridiculous lies to the point where North actually throws down the headphones and flees from her studio! Go HERE.
