Local News: Hate and Death Threats from KSFO Winger Radio
Yeah, I need to pay more attention to local issues.
Thanks to Spocko, who I can't link to because Disney bullied his ISP into shutting down his blog (UPDATE: Spocko's Brain Lives! Here's a link to Spocko's blog), I found out about local radio station KSFO's contributions to civility and moderation in political debate.
And there's no way in hell I can put enough sarcasm on that.
Here's some more light reading on the subject - oh, and don't take my word for it, have a listen for yourself:
Brian Sussman tells caller to say 'Allah is a whore'
KSFO caller suggests bombing Syrian mosques
Brian Sussman wants military weapons in his home
Brian Sussman says he doesn't have to tolerate Islam
Brian Sussman says we should cut off detainee fingers and penises
Melanie Morgan and Ann Coulter say liberals should be executed
Coulter and Morgan say Bill Keller should be executed - sound effects by Officer Vic
Brian Sussman says Islam is a false religion
Officer Vic wants to send a hit team after photojournalists
More laughter about Bill Keller in the electric chair
Honky talk-show host is offended because Sen. Obama is a 'halfrican'
Paint a bullseye on Rep. Nancy Pelosi?
More bullseye talk about Rep. Pelosi
Morgan accuses SF Chronicle of 'blacking up' Richard Pombo
KSFO crew says 'dig up Rachel Carson and kill her again'
Coulter says 'at least they hit some UN peacekeepers'
Morgan says 'hang the NY Times editors'
KSFO crew wants to kill liberals
KFSO crew says 'liberal tree should be pruned'
KSFO crew says liberals should be 'stomped to death'
KSFO crew says 'gonna track that e-mail down and do something unpleasant to his cojones'... then Melanie does a live spot for Brite Smile
KSFO crew says 'then, attack the NY Times'
KSFO caller says Bill Keller should be 'lined up and shot'. KSFO crew says 'skip the trial'
KSFO says 'unpleasant things are going to happen to stupid liberals'
Lee Rodgers talks about civility, then says 'someone should have belted that chinless bitch a long time ago' This one is just precious.
Lee says we need to kill millions of Muslims in Indonesia
Lee says the AP should commit mass suicide
Lee suggests hooking a Sears DieHard battery to someone's testicles, then blowing them away

Hat tip to Ripley and Online Blogintegrity.
Oh, hey - KSFO's contact info sort of snuck in there. I'm sure they're looking forward to hearing from you about this.
I can think of some other people who would love to hear your rational, nonpolitical argument on the value of hate speech and incitement to murder as a means of marketing their products. I'll post contact info from them as soon as I can get it - and if I can figure out how to spam-proof it. You may have to contact me at the link in my profile for the list - but I assure you, the need these people and businesses have to hear from you about this is worth the extra effort.
Update: RJB has posted more contact information at his blog. Remember, these advertisers are (or should be) just as horrified at how KSJO is selling their products and services as you are. They signed up for family-friendly Disney Radio, not hate and calls to murder.

Already we have an update. Looks like Spocko's getting a new site. Looks like this is all over teh intertubes. Looks like the San Francisco Chronicle is about to get involved. Fun times.
Oh yeah, 'cause Disney's lawyers are going to find this:
I have posted links to these files in accordance with Fair Use guidelines, for non-profit, non-political, and educational purposes only. Any resemblance to political statements supporting or opposing these statements is purely coincidental, and probably all in your imagination. This post is as apolitical as...ummm...Path to 9/11.
Also, defending loathsome incitements to murder based on people's skin color, religious beliefs, and/or political affiliation is - while very necessary to support our First Amendment - not what Disney's customers and corporate affiliates would consider to be consistent with Disney's family-friendly corporate image.

Great stuff. Thanks for working so hard to assemble the clips. I have linked to your post and many of the clips on my blog. Keep up the fight. I don't care if right wing radio wants to blame Bill Clinton for everything that is wrong in the world, but I'm tired of the hate and violence they promote against anyone with whom they disagree. It turns out that they disagree with the vast majority of Americans.
Thanks for helping to spread the word! This is already Huge.
More to come.... big, big things...
Rip -
Added some contact information for some of KSFO's sponsors to my blog this morning. Corporate executive names and mailing addresses. Need to begin to ask these corporate and community leaders if they stand behind KSFO's advocacy of violence, torture and religious intolerance.
