Quoth Rich Wood in
:
The "lies" have been all over the trade press.
FUD, spread by those with an interest in AA's failure.
Randi Rhodes allegely suggested George Bush be taken out in a boat
and shot.
Did you hear that program, Rich? I heard it. Rhodes was comparing W to
Fredo Corleone. You may recall that, in the Godfather, it was Fredo's
brother who killed him.
She never advocated anything.
That's what prompted the advertisers to request their spots not air on the
network.
Funny how GM (for the most widely-cited example) says otherwise, if one asks
them. They say they were prompted to pull their ads by the fact of the
change in format (they had bought WLIB to reach the Caribbean market), not by
the content of the new format.
Funny how Ford immediately started advertising THEIR certified used cars on
WLIB as soon as GM stopped advertising theirs...
I think the archive their shows on the net.
Rich, I used to think you were so well-informed. Now, I begin to see
otherwise.
AA maintains no archives.
However, a fan of Randi Rhodes maintains a rolling two-week archive at
http://www.randirhodesarchives.com/.

"I am afeard there are few die well that die in a battle; for how can they
charitably dispose of anything when blood is their argument? Now, if these
men do not die well, it will be a black matter for the King that led them
to it; who to disobey were against all proportion of subjection." - W.S.
