CAIR LAW SUIT

[wnbubbleboy]

December 2, 2007 -- Talk Radio Network-syndicated host Michael Savage has reportedly filed suit against the Council on American-Islamic Relations, saying it's using a clip of his show for fund-raising.

CAIR and sister organization Hate Hurts America Community & Interfaith Coalition have been urging advertisers to withdraw spots from "Savage Nation" over what they say is a history of anti-Muslim comments, radioink.com and worldnetdaily.com reported.

The groups cite OfficeMax, JCPenney, AutoZone and Wal-Mart as advertisers who've dropped the show.

I heard Savage Friday night talking about this.....its about time.I'm tired of these Leftie groups jumping on hosts and such...many weren't out of line so to speak.Left side..take your shots now please

Mike Richards...Mel Gibson...Dog Chapman....ok dudes on the surface...but bingo....instant A-hole.

Imus.....Its hard to say...especially with some of the rapper crap out there...how can one judge a white man when the black man puts out the same crap?
Mike Savage falls into the same arena whether you see it that way or not.
Cair took his stuff out of context and most likely will pay dearly...he's a very learned individual whether you like him or not.

Lets invoke the fairness doctrine then...its the only way to muzzle freedom of speech where the left has failed in the talk show circuit.....TRUTH HURTS

Vote Hillary to invoke the Fairness Doctrine.... :down:

Great article:



The right not to subsidize hate? What about the right to free speech? Notice how the First Amendment has taken a back seat to whether the speech meets with CAIR’s approval. In effect, CAIR is setting itself up as a national arbiter of what should be permitted to be said on the air. CAIR even advises its supporters to “organize local coalitions with friends of the Muslim community to challenge Savage’s hate rhetoric.â€

Those friends include Media Matters, the Hillary Clinton front organization which has publicized CAIR’s complaints about “anti-Muslim†comments in the media.

The return of the Fairness Doctrine would give these groups direct access to the FCC.

The issue isn’t whether Savage has been critical of Islam or even whether he has made some extreme statements. The issue is that a special interest group wants to muzzle its political enemies. And it is succeeding! It is just as dangerous as the campaign against the British school teacher in the Sudan.

Ironically, CAIR’s vice-chairman received the ACLU’s 2003 Liberty’s Flame Award “for contributions to the advancement and protection of civil liberties.†But the civil liberties of Michael Savage don’t matter in CAIR’s scheme of things.

Whether you like Savage or not, he must not be forced off the air as the result of a special interest political pressure campaign. Beyond that, however, the public must be educated about how CAIR’s campaign against Savage is part of the effort to force Sharia law on the world.
