Bernie kept insisting that Bush won. Thom didn't disagree.
Shelby cut over to a Malloy replay of last night's show.
I was listening on CRN4, so I wasn't affected.

19. WTF was Sanders saying that for??? |
|
Is he trying to cut off the last vigilant holdouts at the knees? Something is haywire.

I'm gonna send RadioPower an email, I understand why they did it but Thom is awesome, I just don't think he wanted to get into a big argument with Sanders tho I wish he would have taken him to task

3. Maybe Thom did not think it was worth the air time? |

Edited on Fri Dec-31-04 03:02 PM by BrklynLiberal

5. I agree it was a bad call....but I can imagine what Shelby was thinking |
|
she was probably really irate listening to the conversation. And annoyed that Thom waited until Sander was no longer on the air to address it.

7. She needs to get a grip |
|
Censoring how Thom handles an issue, even as serious as this, is an awful move. He's so trustworthy and has a lifetime of working for social justice.

6. Sometimes I'm Surprised DU Is Still "On-Stream." |

I'm pleased that we've been able to pursue the voting issue and help to organize resistance and reform to blatant fraud.

13. I can't believe they did that! |
|
I disagreed with Bernie Sanders on this one too, but to cut off the show in mid-stream? That's a little over-the-top. And holy cow, isn't this something you would think they'd do on a right-wing station!? Bad move. I think they're cutting their foot off if they drop Hartmann. He's a wonderful asset to our cause.

14. Radiopower doesn't get paid by Thom Hartmann to air the show |
|
Since the show was broadcasting something which sounded as if it could have come from Rush Limbaugh and which Shelby feels strongly about, I can understand her wish not to use her bandwidth airing that viewpoint.

16. She pays for a lot of that bandwidth from her own $$ |
|
That in itself could be a strong motivating factor.

17. Well I understand that but |
|
doesn't that kind of behavior kind of defeat the purpose? Will she actually be able to fill her airwaves with opinions not just from the left but only those that exactly match her views on each issue? And will how much appeal will that have to the audience? It just seems narrow to me.

18. I think you and Robbien have a valid point |
|
But if she didn't like how Thom handled Sanders - I sure don't like the way she handled Thom. I've donated to her in the past. I'm not motivated to do so again because of this style.

20. The people fighting the voting issue have been attacked from all sides |
|
I can understand the frustration she must have felt having her time and money going to promote even more attacks on the issue she works on and cares about so deeply.

21. I dont understand Sanders |
|
What was the context of his remarks? Who was bringing the topic up? Why not just say that people are still looking at it seriously, without undercutting our hard workers in absence of the final say? Grrr.
