Why do you want to censor Rush for offering an opinion you disagree with? Again: Now I agree that Rush should be able to say what ever he wants. Should ESPN give him a platform for that? It's up to ESPN to decide if Rush is a plus or a minus to their show and to their audience. On the EIB mircophone Rush can say what he wants because he is the boss. But in these cases we are talking about businesses and customers, it's not the same as an internet political board in which no one has a commercial interest in what is said. In this case, as in the case of political discussions and protests, censorship has no place. At lot of us can't agree with anything Carville says, but don't advocate censoring him. If it's political, it should not be censored, if it's a commercial operation then the broadcaster should have the right to the content. As always as consumers we have the right to change the channel. Just like on these boards where we have the right to Ignore. Orca
