NPR Downplays Clear Channel DJ remarks
Today, while listening to Morning Edition, NPR ran a short piece on
how Clear Channel is trying to improve its image regarding the remarks of its DJs about BOTHERING cyclists. As what these DJs advocated was a lot more than BOTHERING bicyclists, I wrote the following to NPR: Your story about how Clear Channel was attempting to improve its image because some of its DJs advocated bothering bicyclists was a disservice to the truth and to the safety of bicycle riders. These DJ's did not advocate BOTHERING bicyclists, they advocated actions that could result in severe harm or death of human beings. These actions included drivers swerving into cyclists, throwing things at riders, honking, yelling, or passing and then slamming on their brakes. Next time, don't downplay the truth. If this bothers anybody else, I suggest contacting NPR and letting them know. Paul Tepley |

NPR Downplays Clear Channel DJ remarks
Rick, this wasn't a troll. I listen to Public Radio almost
exculsively. I once listened to Rush Limbaugh for 10 minutes before I got sick. I posted to both groups because this misrepresentation affects all cyclists and I just don't like that anybody, including NPR, alters the truth to make a sucky corporation like Clear Channel look better.

Does anybody know how to contact Clear Channel to bitch at them about how much they suck? If you have to ask then you don't have anything much to say. Bill "sorry" S. |
