Apparently Clear Channel has suspended the morning team from KSTE-AM in Sacramento for remarks made about the prophet Mohammed. Armstrong said, ?Some of you people that are good with the computer ? make an anti-Mohammed ad post it to Al Jazeera. We need to swamp them with ads until they grow up. It?s absolutely unbelievable that we (The U.S.) have been put in a position where we?re apologizing and nobody condemns them." He also said, during his rant, "Mohammed sucks a#*."
There is no official word yet from Clear Channel on the suspension which apparently began Tuesday following the comments that were made on the Monday show. There is also no reference to a suspension on the A&G page at the KSTE website. A "best of" show was aired yesterday. A Facebook page has been set up by fans in support of Armostrong and Getty. You can listen to the remarks made on the show here:

Seriously? "You're either going to grow up and join the 21st century... or we're going to kill you." Really? How did that "We're going to kill you" stuff work out for us in Afghanistan? How is it working out in Iraq? Yes, they (rioting Moslems) need to calm down. But so do you. Inflaming the prejudices of people who look up to you is not good broadcasting.
