Reply #5: sure they were [View All]

I'll also tell you from experience that the commercial likely evoked exactly the response from you that was intended. Even commercials designed at the local level, are reviewed by writers, clients, DJs, Program Directors and maybe Station Managers. I just could never figure out how anyone could stomach Rush, even back when my views were more moderate. How can you stand to sit through back-to-back lies? It's even worse than CBN. It doesn't matter whether you agree with Rush or, say for example, Howard Stearn, they simply want listeners. May West said it best: "Just be sure and spell the name right." To listen at all puts money in the bank for them, unless you listen and then write letters to sponsors complaining about programming. That's how you hurt right-wing media. Kick them where it hurts but try not to come across as the radical left in letters. If you're religious at all, perhaps mention in a letter to a sponsor that lying is wrong and you will no longer buy products from companies that support liars.
