UNC Chapel Hill Tells Radio Station to Stop Mentioning Its Sports Program During Limbaugh’s Show

AP
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has asked a local radio station known as “Rush Radio” to stop mentioning both the school and its Tar Heels sports program during the broadcast of Rush Limbaugh’s talk show, the North Carolina News and Observer reported.
The university has similarly asked for no references to Limbaugh’s show during broadcasts of its football and basketball games on the station, WRDU 106.1.
The school’s actions, announced last week, are a direct response to Limbaugh calling Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke a “slut” and a “prostitute” after she testified in favor of insurance coverage of contraceptives. Local residents petitioned the school to sever ties with the station over the controversy, according to WCHL 1360.
In a statement, UNC said it was “unfortunately and awkwardly connected” to Limbaugh by having its games broadcast on the same station that airs his show.
“Limbaugh recently made rude, inappropriate and offensive statements,” the statement said. “That connection spurred many people to email us and prompted a petition campaign, both with the goal of urging us to drop our broadcasts from the station.”
It continued, “We have asked β and the local station has agreed β to end the practice of referencing the Tar Heel Sports Network or the Universityβs name while promoting the Limbaugh program and vice versa.”
UNC Chancellor Holden Thorp told the student radio news magazine Carolina Connection that “a lot of our faculty and some other folks outside of the University were upset to find out that we were connected with βRush Radio.’”
“We do understand why people were upset,” Thorp said. “I think that was a good compromise.”

I’m actually very curious about what you’ve said here… How exactly are Rush, Beck, Hannity, etc… blacking out Ron Paul’s “Constitutional Liberty”? I haven’t heard anything about this until now.

Rush/Haniity/Beck/Levin (and now I’ve heard FAKE-TEA GOPer Dana Loesch) have done EVERYTHING THEY CAN to black-out, ridicule, marginalize, cherry-pick “polls,” mangle delegate totals, ridiculing AND SCREEN OUT supporters, laugh at and lie about Ron Paul – the man WHO REPRESENTS EVERYTHING THEY CLAIM TO FIGHT FOR! This is not only a form of censorship, it’s ELECTION FRAUD! Ron Paul has a way of exposing ALL of the FAKE-conservatives!

Rush says that numerous local advertisers have been flooded with calls bashing their choice to advertise on the show.
Says the site: βWell-funded professional activists, led by the left-wing pressure group Media Matters, are waging a campaign across America to hurt small businesses like yours through strong-arm tactics and intimidation.
They donβt like Rush Limbaughβs point of view, they resent his extraordinary popularity, and they are trying to silence him by punishing small businesses that advertise on his show!
They are actually trying to shut down businesses β tying up phone lines, crashing websites, bombarding Facebook pages or Twitter accounts, and preventing real customers from getting through.
Weβre here to help you get back to business.
Let these left-wing special interest groups know that you will not be silenced. Tell them not to trample on your First Amendment rights or improperly interfere with your business and your livelihood!

You posted the following link of companies who allegedly suspended advertisements and neglected their financial interests and the interest of the stock holders of which include middle class 401k holders, the elderly, and minorities.

Posted on March 29, 2012 at 8:08amSeriously…. can you people just give up on Ron….. he IS NOT going to win. He is not my guy, but my guy is probably not going to win either. Living in your own world only hurts everyone else. Do I like it? No.
I wish the world is different but there are to many people that don’t care and/or don’t realize what is going on so nobody is going to win by “going down with the ship”. Unfortunately, because people are like that, things will not change until something bad happens. And something bad is coming, everyone can sense it.
And the deal about Rush, I find that there is no standard like the double standard. Remember, “they” have been “oppressed” for “so long” that it’s time to get some “payback”. Its okay for Maher to say stuff on purpose, and then Rush says one thing…… then it’s the end of the world. This is awesome, soon 2 plus 2 WILL equal 5.

Farrakhan is set to speak with students at the Huntsville campus on April 10 at the invitation of a coalition of student groups, including the Alabama A&M Democrats and the Alabama A&M Poetry Club, according to local news reports.
A spokesman for the Alabama Democratic Party did not return a request for comment from The Daily Caller on whether the state organization thinks the speech is an appropriate activity for the College Democrats”.

Posted on March 28, 2012 at 1:36pmI agree! Read David Horowitz’s book, “101 Worst Professors.”
I do not understand how parents can send their children off to be indoctrinated by these Marxists professors as a result of failing to research the “culture” of these schools. Many of the Jesuit colleges (ex: Georgetown) are now funded by the Saudis in return for them offering Islamic courses and universities we once considered the creme de la creme (such as Harvard, Brown, Stanford, U of P) are nothing but brainwashing bastions staffed by die-hard Marxists.

Posted on March 28, 2012 at 2:00pmMarine25, Rush never demanded anything of the sorts. If you say he did then you’ve neber listened to the show or the comments he made. He was saying that if it costs $ 3000.00 a year for birth control then she’s a slut which she would be since a months supply of birth control is about 40 to 50 bucks. If she isn’t using birth control then condoms at.75 cents each would equal 4000 times she had sex in a year or about 2.8 times a day. That was what he was saying and it was done in a humorous way. The libs jumped on it to try and move their agenda. I would think a Marine would understand honor and honesty. Unless you’re suffering from PDSD you’re a disgrace to the uniform.

People in the surrounding area avoid Chapel Hill whenever possible. It’s gone to Liberal- hippie cesspool hell in a hand basket.

Posted on March 28, 2012 at 12:09pmRush called any woman who has ever used insurance to defer the cost of birth control a whore, a prostitute, and demanded they post web videos.
He’s talking about 10′s of millions of women here. Some of whom are your wives girlfriends daughters sisters and yes, mothers.
It is most certainly about what he said. Gentleman don’t talk about women that way. Rush should be worried one of his listeners turns out to be smart enough to figure out Rush just called his wife a whore, and demanded his daughter post web videos.
But they aren’t that smart.

So – not surpirsed UNC is doing this. There is a real difference between N Carolina and S. Carolina – ‘course – guess that is why they split the original State into two different parts. Think Northern and Southern California should have done the same thing – thought so growing up there in the 60′s-70′s too!

Posted on March 28, 2012 at 11:32amInteresting that the “New Black Panther Party” is also an avowed anti-Jewish hate group. This ties in so nicely to the Obama Administration’s policies and the total pro-Arab/ anti-Isreal – American policies of the Arab Spring/ Egyptian Brotherhood Movements . Seems as though Jews and Christians are now on an ever-expanding radar screen. Hello, Democrats ? Will be interesting to see how they spin all of this in their attempts to ” spin” another election victory ! We know that Obama’s microphone accidents have told us he doesn’t respect the Israeli government spokesman and that Obama sends his assurances on to Vladimir that he can be more “flexible” after his ” last ” election ( so moved by his pat on Mevedev’s arm ) Think I can read between these lines.

Posted on March 28, 2012 at 3:47pmReply from UNC- I am sure it is a “form” letter
I’m sorry you’re upset with the University. I want to be sure you know that we
have taken no action to remove the Tar Heel Sports Radio Network from the local
station that broadcasts UNC basketball and football games.
Carolina Athletics contracts with Tar Heel Sports Properties, a division of
Learfield Sports. Learfield owns and operates the Tar Heel Sports Radio Network
as an independent contractor. The network includes over 50 affiliates and brings
the live broadcasts of our games to people in almost all of North Carolina.
That’s our goal … for Carolina fans to hear our games.
We do not affiliate with or endorse any radio personality or politician, so we
asked the local station to end the practice of referencing the Tar Heel Sports
Network or the University’s name while promoting the Rush Limbaugh program and
vice versa. They agreed. That is simply to avoid the appearance of a university
endorsement of a radio personality.
Beyond that, the University does not plan to take any additional action at this
time.

Storm state capitals with union mobs ? Supreme Court hand down a decision you don’t favor ? Demean them in a State of the Union speech and send your storm troopers in to Occupy the Courts. Not able to get congress to pass legislation you like ? Demean them in the media as “Do nothing congress” and then pass Executive Orders to bypass the elected representatives of the people . Afraid you’ll loose an election ? Turn people out to Occupy the cities, bust their budgets, and disrupt public access to the places their tax money has provided. JFK and many other “old” school Democrats must be twirling. This “New” Democrat / Marxist Party of bullies and intimidators has GOT TO Go.

Posted on March 28, 2012 at 11:42amFits in so nicely with the union mobs in Wisconsin, the Occupy the courts, the Occupy the cities, the Mic Checks at Republican primaries, the ACORN groups in bankers’ neighborhoods, the Hoodie Marches to “arrest” a man they have decided is guilty without the facts, Our Democrats: just a bunch of bullies who “demand” what they want, use hate speech and rallies, and Occupies when they don’t get it. The adults in Washington used to call them anarchists . Now they call them fellow Democrats. Another “change” these Marxists have brought to America.
