I would say i'm surprised that Dems are once again attempting to end any speech they don't agree with but that would be a lie.

Broward may cancel deal with radio station because it airs Rush Limbaugh: South Florida Sun-Sentinel


Varus

Has another station been contracted to provide this info, or are the residents being forced to go without?

***nevermind, I see that the decision has been postponed.
slightly off-topic, but why would an AM station be the conduit for this info? FM is much stronger.

The hurricane warnings belong on limbaugh's station. Keep all the blowhards together.

In my area, WWL is our emergency station:

WWL - AM870 • FM105.3 | News • Talk • Sports | OnDemand@1350 - About Us

I would think that most communities have more than one station. But honestly, to not renew because of Limbaugh is silly on the Dems part. Damn people! Grow up! If there's an emergency, Limbaugh's show won't even be aired!!!!!

EDIT: Sorry about the quotes being messed up but I don't seem to have the tool bar! WTF???

I guess I can understand why this county has decided to make this decision - if the majority of its' residents are Democrats, they would probably not want to subject themselves to comedian Rush Limbaugh.
But I find it odd that ALL local radio stations do not broadcast these hurricane warnings, like tv stations do.
If I was forced to watch FOX to get my storm warnings, I would choose to go without.

BTW
Thanks for the info Speakeasy.
I guess that is why those religious AM broadcasts come in so much better when travelling out West. When that is all I can find, it is time to dig out the CDs.

No one would be subjected to Rush because during an emergency, all regular programming is canceled.

First off, where are the Democrats attempting to end any speech they don't agree with? Have they taken steps to have Limbaugh removed from the airwaves? THAT would be an attempt to end speech they don't agree with.

Unless they decide not to contract with another radio station, this is a non-issue...

Nope. Believe me, I just spent the last five minutes trying.

Maybe if I copy the whole thing to a new thread or something..

It's something with the State & Local Politics forum. It allows you to quote when I move it to another section, but strangely enough, it doesn't retroactively make the posts correct that were made before the move.

I'm going to move it out of here until we figure something out.

Okay, I went back and fixed all the previous posts and moved it here.

Hopefully, this should suffice till we figure out whats up with that other forum..
