Talk-radio owner orders conservative
hosts to temper election fraud rhetoric

After months of stoking anger about alleged election fraud, one of America's largest talk-radio companies has decided on an abrupt change of direction. Cumulus Media, which employs some of the most popular right-leaning talk-radio hosts in the United States, has told its on-air personalities to stop suggesting that the election was stolen from President Donald Trump - or else face termination. A Cumulus executive issued the directive on Wednesday, just as Congress met to certify Joe Biden's election victory and an angry mob of Trump supporters marched on the Capitol, overwhelmed police and briefly occupied the building, terrorizing lawmakers and leading to the deaths of five people.

To quote someone elsewhere, “Come clean” means stick to the official narrative. What they actually believe is irrelevant in the sort of country this is turning into."

Dark days ahead. Do you really think by censoring people that we'll forget that the election was stolen. The press is supposed to have a backbone - you're a coward. People won't forget that their votes were stolen from them. It seems that President Trumps republicans are independent and actually think for themselves. In the end, you lose. I'll find out your sponsors and boycott them and if that means I don't buy anything, so be it.

I’m listening right now to Mark Levin who is with Cumulus. He says he has not received such a memo.

Again, this is a lie being spread by the New York Slimes and the Washington Compost. And they keep saying that Trump lied about the election. The truth is that the election was rigged. Trump is the only one who told the truth.

oops, lost my post ~ In July I Heart Radio warned the 700WLW truckers network to cut out political talk on their decades old overnight call in show. Guess it wasn't a cut clean since I looked for them on my app over New Years & found a replacement show, no call ins - just hosts. Read that Steve Sommers & other hosts got cancelled in Nov.around the election. Corporations are so woke to believe they must blacklist politically incorrect speech to appease their big tech overlords. Don't they grasp that we will blacklist their products with our pocketbooks?

If you read something in the Washington Compost (but why would you?) just assume that it is a lie, and the truth is just the opposite. They've been anti-American at least since 1971, when they published The Pentagon Papers, Then we had the psyops operation of their "reporters" Woodward and Bernstein to remove President Nixon, who was forced to resign for trying to cover up the crimes of others. Clinton and Obama committed felonies and traitorous acts, and they are lionized by the left.

Maybe they just didn't tell Levin about it yet. I see the story on many other 'legitimate' MSM news sources besides Bezos' WaPo, and it says that the memo was sent to their station managers; the articles don't say that they have informed the 'talent' yet.. Given the (willfully) ignorant furor of nearly all media organizations I wouldn't doubt this story is actually true. and I bet Salem Media will soon do it, even if Cumulus hasn't / won't.

Whether you believe in QAnon or not, one of the points that Q made was the claim that pedophilia tied together many of the world’s power brokers. That’s would make it unsurprising that Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted pedophile who continued his wicked ways even after his conviction, had such a big network of rich and powerful people who knew about his vicious propensities and seemingly didn’t care. Even knowing that, it’s still big news to learn that Bill Gates, one of the world’s richest and most powerful men, had a deep friendship with Epstein.

ALBANY, N.Y. — The New York State attorney general accused the Cuomo administration of undercounting coronavirus-related deaths at nursing homes by as much as 50 percent, according to a report released on Thursday. The count of deaths in state nursing homes has been a source of controversy for Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo and state Health Department officials, who have been sensitive to any suggestion that they played any role in the number of nursing home deaths, which the state put at more than 8,500. They have also been accused of obscuring a more accurate estimate of nursing home deaths, because the state only counted deaths at the actual facilities,

There was a loudspeaker warning people to clear the area before the massive blast, according to a Metro Nashville Police spokesperson and surveillance footage.

Dr. Anthony Fauci reportedly said in a phone interview that he has been deliberately changing his public statements regarding the COVID-19 pandemic because he didn’t think people were ready to hear his true beliefs, according to the New York Times. Fauci has been slowly increasing the number of Americans he says need to be vaccinated for the U.S. to reach “herd immunity” in public statements, the New York Times reported Thursday morning. He reportedly told the Times he has done so “partly based on new science, and partly on his gut feeling that the country is finally ready to hear what he really thinks.”

WASHINGTON — Attorney General William Barr said Tuesday the Justice Department has not uncovered evidence of widespread voter fraud that would change the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. His comments in an interview with The Associated Press come despite President Donald Trump’s repeated baseless claims that the election was stolen, Trump’s effort to subvert the results of the 2020 presidential election and his refusal to concede his loss to President-Elect Joe Biden. Barr said U.S. attorneys and FBI agents have been working to follow up specific complaints and information they’ve received, but they’ve uncovered no evidence that would change the outcome of the election.

JJim Jeffrey, the United States’ retiring Special Representative to Syria and the special envoy in the fight against the Islamic State, confirmed Thursday that he and other senior administration officials routinely misled President Donald Trump on troop levels in the Middle East. Jeffrey, speaking to Defense One, explained how despite Trump’s stated promise to withdraw America from endless Middle Eastern engagements, he was able to convince the president to commit to keeping between 200 to 400 troops in the region in 2019 to “secure” oil fields held by U.S. allies and other strategic positions. “We were always playing shell games to not make clear to our leadership

Philadelphia’s district attorney on Wednesday threatened President Donald Trump if he sent “uncertified” poll watchers to the city, telling him in a statement, “I’ve got something for you” if any attempts are made to interfere with Election Day activities. In a fiery statement posted on his website, District Attorney Larry Krasner likened Trump to a “lawless, power-hungry despot,” and vowed that Philadelphians “will not be cowed.” The statement followed Trump's response to a night of looting in Philadelphia over the police shooting of a Black man, who police claimed was charging at them with a knife.

For those who have watched the Senate confirmation hearing of Amy Coney Barrett for Supreme Court justice, we know one thing: facing the inevitability of her confirmation, the Democrats are using this entire hearing as a big, fat campaign ad for Joe Biden. It's all about COVID, the ACA, and health care — just like his entire shtick for the last few months. But is this really all they are up to? History proves that the Dems are usually up to no good, especially when they seem to be behaving. It's possible they will just use the remainder of their time to filibuster,

Florida might as well be known as the sixth borough.New data from the Sunshine State’s Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles offers the latest glimpse of just how many New Yorkers fled south during the COVID-19 pandemic. At least 33,565 New Yorkers exchanged their NY drivers licenses for Florida credentials between September 2020 and March 2021.That’s a 32% increase from the same period the prior year, when 25,370 New York driver’s licenses were traded for Florida ones.Florida officials said a major cause of migration was parents looking to get their kids back in full-time, in-person school.

Is planting misleading innuendo about oneself a good tool to sell the services of an information provider? In what other product category does one openly debase the quality as a means of gathering attention? Tucker Carlson, whose viewership is more than 4 times that of Don Lemon’s, likes to characterize the CNN host as stupid. That label certainly applies to the publicity stunt trick Lemon pulled on Friday night: “CNN Tonight” anchor Don Lemon announced Friday that “this will be the last night” of the show he’s hosted since 2014 (snip) "I’ll be back on Monday with my newly named show Don Lemon Tonight.

The bill was approved following a debate but needs one additional vote in the House to move on to the Texas Senate. According to Rep.

As we previously reported, the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) took out a building that they said contained Hamas military intelligence operation. It also contained offices for the Associated Press and Al Jazeera, among other media outlets. Prior to hitting the building, the IDF warned the media outlets and others in the building to get out before they took down the building. Some in media were upset that Israel took out the building. But as we noted, how could media not know that Hamas had an operation going on in the building, if they were sharing the building with them?
