Randi Rhodes back: Green 960 leads the charge for free speech

Wed Apr 09, 2008 at 10:06:11 PM PDT

As most of you know Randi Rhodes  the progressive talker was recently suspended by Air America Radio for remarks that she made about Geraldine Ferraro and sen Clinton.  

She will not be returning to AAR. Instead,today Green 960 took on the cause and is one of the latest champions of free speech.  

Below is the video of the Green 960 announcement and the entire video of her remarks.

The entire video of her routine.

According to the video Larry Johnson posted Randi's comments out of context. Is anyone really surprised?

I am ashamed of Air America. They are supposed to be the bastion of liberal radio and they (meaning Mark Green) seem to represent everything but progressive values.  

I am shocked and disappointed that they would end their relationship with her. Air America is the house that Randi built.

I disagree with her word choice but I defend her with all my might for her right to say it.

I can't imagine Thomm Hartman or Rachael Maddow agreeing with AAR's decision.

Sorry for the short diary I just wanted to get this out there so those who are fans can look forward to hearing her Monday.
