A Letter to Clear Channel

By Jim Dallas

From Brady, a buddy of mine, over at livingindefinitely.com:

Clear Channel Communications
200 Basse Road
San Antonio, TX 78209

pr@clearchannel.com

21 September 2003

Dear Clear Channel:

I am writing with an important request. As a regular radio listener, I feel that the amount of Toby Keith songs played on Clear Channel stations is way too high and ought to be reduced. To zero.

I don’t ask this because of Toby’s extreme knee-jerk right-wing politics. People of all political stripes should be on the radio. Why, just recently, some broadcast company whose name eludes me at the moment tried to ban Dixie Chicks songs just because they criticized President Bush. How ridiculous is that? No, I’m not asking you to stop playing Toby Keith songs because of his politics. I’m asking you to stop playing his songs because they’re incredibly shitty.

Yup.
