I’ve said many times I’m unable to listen to RR anymore. The only times I do is when I’m in an area of poor reception and KFMB is one of the few stations without static, it beats listening to a dead CD player.
Rick has helped in the community, the Warrior Foundation, Hire a Patriot, to name a few, but his negativity overshadows the good. The “Pedro” talk drives me up a wall.
He does not allow dissenting opinions, there had been many times I would yell at the radio (RR), “For God’s sake let the man speak.” It is not “The Court of Public Opinion” it is Rick’s opinion.
Jack Oliver or anyone else, if you have called sponsors, please share with us the reaction. I’m not sure if anything will come of it, but when someone feels as strongly as Jack Oliver they should follow through.
My only differing view is the need for the Fairness Doctrine, I think if there were more people like Jack Oliver there would be no need for a doctrine when the public can insist the station change their format. Put the power in the publics hands and not the government.

[glow=red,2,300] MORE PRK ROBERTS GAY BASHING THIS WEEK. IF YOU HAVE GAY FRIENDS, OR ARE GAY, OR SUPPORT EQUAL RIGHTS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO BOYCOTT RICK ROBERTS SPONSORS[/glow] OK, since you did not quote, defend or elaborate, your definition of gay bashing may not be bashing at all to the gay community. I’m remembering a joke where you were incensed but gays found it humorous. You might be taken seriously if it were not for the shouting, errrr screaming.

Sorry about the red font,,,just trying something new.
CM, you say you don’t listen to Roberts, so im sorry you don’t know what im referring too. Most this week Prk was bashing gays on the radio,,,,calling them demeaning names like the Gay Maffia, etc…and he was just getting his straight listeners another group to hate.; You know that is his agenda.
So Im just sheding light here about Ricks constant gay bashing…
Also, Cm, just because your friends were not offended does not mean they speak for the ENTIRE GAY COMMUNITY> Try telling that joke in a work environment.

You do not know who my friends are, but to let you know one of them does speak for the gay community. I not going to identify him, he is a frequent guest of this blog. I have offered him dinner to rebuke you, but because of his standing he is unable. Me and my wife are having dinner at their home Saturday before the Aztec basketball game. You are in the dark on this subject. I fail to see the statement “Gay Mafia” as gay bashing. Is the Russian Mafia, Russian bashing? Of course not. You have heard many times typing in caps is the equivalent to shouting, typing in bold cap is the equivalent to screaming. What all caps is really saying, the writer has nothing of value to say, so it is look at me. Bold caps is like a baby that is not getting their way and begins to scream, again nothing of value to say.

I cant believe you are defending gay jokes that are demeaning to gays,,, I guese to each his own...this is america.

Once again you make blanket statement without any element of fact. Your opinions are your opinions, expressed over and over does not make them so. I suppose opinions are like lies, say them often enough and you believe them as truth.

we can disagree on the topic of your joke.
I dont even remember it, but i do remember my opinion about it.
I know this is a silly discussion, but please remind me what the joke was and we'll just probably agree to disagree.
sorry my responses reflect the time I have to put in to them today....

I do know that broadcasters are suffering a great deal inthis economy as I get feeds from several trade publications as I was in the business back in the stone age but I still have a substantial interesrt in the field.The layoffs and cutting are endemic.I see dozens of on-air and behind the scenes people getting the axe.Locally sports radio 1360 has let go the entire local air staff and gone syndicated.The point is it might not take a lot to pressure RR into toning it down a bit(or a lot).Ad revenue is down greatly and stations have lowered their rates a great deal to keep some revenue coming in.They're a business first,not free entertainment.

yes Bruce, now would be a good time to contact Prk Roberts sponsors. I shall continue my right to voice my opinion in the court of public opinion.
Let me see if his sponsors agree that Obama supporters are the like the Hitler youth.
Let me see if his sponsors agree about blatant gay bashing.
since dems and libs and independents are more educated and make more money, lets see how this impacts their business?
