CBS honchos just said he would not be using their microphones to do so.

The Bill of Rights restricts the government from interfering with your free speech rights. It offers no protection from anyone's boss who finds an employee's speech offensive.
Trust me, those snakes didn't find anything he said offensive. If they had, it wouldn't have taken Al Sharpton to initiate punitive action.

The cowards just drew the politically correct card from the deck. But that's okay, because I will now make an effort to avoid sponsor who advertise on CBS radio.
