Randi Rhodes Takes the High Road….and QUITS!
By Michael Lang on Apr 11, 2008 in Political Commentary
The Lang Report published an article on the third of this month harshly criticizing Air America on their suspending of radio talk show host for a comedy routine she did at a San Francisco nightclub. Much has happened since then including Rando resigning for Air America, which in my opinion is their loss.
San Francisco Chronicle, USA -
Randi Rhodes will be back on the air Monday in San Francisco. It’s been a long couple of weeks for the highly-rated liberal chat show host. Remember how the now former Air America host got herself suspended last week for stuff she said at a March 22 appearance in San Francisco about Sen. Hillary Clinton and ex-Rep. Geraldine Ferraro?
Host Out at Air America
New York Times, United States -
By BRIAN STELTER; Compiled by LAWRENCE VAN GELDER The radio host Randi Rhodes has ended her employment with Air America, the liberal radio network, it said Thursday, leaving the network with a three-hour hole in its afternoon schedule. Ms. Rhodes, who was host of the nationally syndicated “Randi Rhodes Show,” was suspended a week ago after a video of her making disparaging remarks about Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton surfaced on YouTube.
Air America Host Quits After Anti-Clinton Remarks
Wall Street Journal -
By SARAH MCBRIDE Randi Rhodes, the last high-profile host on liberal talk-radio network Air America, is leaving the company after a firestorm over offensive comments she made at a public event about Sen. Hillary Clinton. In a statement on its Web site, Pendulum Media LLC’s Air America Media said Ms. Rhodes told the company last night that she had "chosen to terminate her employment with the company."
All the semantic quibbling about free speech and Air America’s purported right to control what its announcers say off the air, overlooks the fact we don’t really know if the network and Randi Rhodes had ever agreed her comedy material must be vetted prior to public presentation (not likely), or if there is some sort of a broadly worded morals clause in her contract (more likely, but not necessarily applicable). Therefore, it’s apparently unjust for Air America to have suspended Rhodes for any portion of her controversial stand-up act.
Indecision 2008 (satire) -
Remember last week when that whore Randi Rhodes of Air America got in all kinds of whore trouble for calling those whores Hillary Clinton and Geraldine Ferraro whores? Turns out Rhodes could have kept whoring around at Air America if only she’d made a whorific apology to those whores, but it looks like she’d rather just quit that whore-mongering radio station full of whores…

Amen James! I have been a fan and follower of Randi’s for over 15 years now and I agree with you that more people need to now about her and listen to her.
Ironically, I just added a category today titled, “As Randi Rhodes Sees It” and I am very excited at the prospect of sharing her with the my readers.
