These guys sign up for advertising on politically controversial shows, then wimp out when the bloggers take over. Of course, they didn't wimp out when Ed Schultz went after Laura Ingraham. Limbaugh, NOT Schultz, MADE Carbonite. This was a really stupid move on their parts and the stockholders ought to be pissed. Regardless of where management stands politically, they have a duty to their shareholders. It would have looked a lot better for them had they dropped ALL talk radio at the same time saying they no longer want to take the risk of offending those on one side or the other of the spectrum. From a stockholder's point of view, this is clearly putting their own political interests ahead of stockholder value.
