Should we DU blast KLIF (opposing Cindy in Crawford)
Edited on Thu Aug-11-05 10:34 AM by cry baby
According to http://www.defiancezone.com/PeaceInPink.php this Dallas right wing radio station is broadcasting from right across the street from the peace house. At one point, the DJ turned up the microphone real loud and said "Cindy, meet with me" where everybody could hear.

Here is their contact email address:
KLIFcomments@klif.com

How dare they go after a GOLD STAR MOTHER!

Edit to say that if you want to see what kind of pond scum talks from this station, here is the link: http://www.klif.com/

22. WOW! If that is true it sounds like its a set up to get a bunch of lefties
overeracting so they can use the words against this movement...

Be aware and be careful everyone.. remember Lila (from F9/11) said once "that you never know who you are really talking with", so don't go overboard. That was in reference to the lady in the movie who tried to call her out as a fake.

5. I'm assuming the DJ is Daryl Ankarlo.
..a truly stomach-turning RWer and self-promoter (in some people's opinion, at the expense of his son who is in Iraq).

9. I just left a message for the program director
It may be used on the air, so if anyone hears it, let me know.

This is what I said.

My name is _____________(yes, I left my real name and state) and I am calling about the DJ who has seen fit to set up camp outside the peace house in Crawford and taunt Cindy Sheehan. I wonder if this individual has enlisted? Fine if you support the war, but to taunt a grieving mother who wants to confront a lying President is despicable and the DJ and you as the program director should be ashamed. There is a special place in hell for all of you.


EOM.

10. If those bozos are in the area
I'd say Sheehan should walk over there, make sure she has a microphone that they can't cut off, and reduce the DJ to the puddle of cowardly goo that he is. I don't think the DJ quite realizes who he's trifling with, and Cindy Sheehan would eat his lunch in a fair discussion.

11. My zinger to KLIF:
KLIF KLUX KLAN,

How dare you go after a Gold Star mother? Have you no decency? I think not. This will back-fire on you and your Chickenhawk cabal of Bu$hkoviks. If you and your listeners are stupid enough to support this illegal war and this vapid little man in the White House (who is now setting a record for presidential vacations down on the pig farm), why don't you enlist and volunteer for Iraq?

(DemoTex)
Brevard, NC

FYI: I flew 250 combat missions in Vietnam and Laos while Lt. Bu$h was snorting blow, drinking whiskey, and shirking his duty at the Texas Air Guard. Bu$h had a sinecure in the Texas Air Guard, thanks to his pappy, and he managed to screw that up too.

18. Love the use of the word "sinecure"
And I'll bet those dunderheads will think you meant to type "sincere" or something. Hee, hee, hee.

Seriously, though, does KLIF really want Cindy Sheehan to be telling their audience that George W. Bush is dishonest, that the war is all about getting oil, and that the only thing he's into it for is to make his wealthy friends wealthier? I think not.

23. my e-mail to the station
I am so offended by the behavior of Daryl Ankarlo,I assume with the blessings of your upper management.I am the mother of an active duty soldier.I support wholeheartedly the efforts of the Gold Star Families for Peace,Veterans against Iraq,and Code Pink to stage their peaceful demonstration at Crawford,Texas.I have been a KLIF listener since 1998,but today will be my last day.Mr Ankarlo's complete disrespect for Ms Sheehan is,in my opinion,the most cruel thing I have ever heard broadcast.I can't believe his son is active duty USMC.He has spit on the graves of every soldier,sailor and Marine who died so we could have freedom of speech.He now wants to rob these parents of their right to question our president?I have thought many times of what my reaction would be if I were told my son was killed in action(he is on his third deployment to the war zone).I would be upset and want some answers,too....and I bet Mr Ankarlo would change his tune if,God forbid,the same should happen to him.I know Mr Ankarlo loves his son.Cindy Sheehan and these families love their DEAD children too.Shame on your station for exploiting their grief.I am assembling a list of your sponsors,and will contact them next.

35. oh so THATS why the cops came and told
everyone they couldnt park over there!!! Seriously, there are signs all over the place that you can not park there across from the peace house.
idget. I dont know if it is because of this twit, who I have heard on the radio too, or if the cops ran him off or what. Either way Crawford police is allowing no one across the street. Fool.

36. That would be ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL. Go after the advertisers.
The DJ's at KLIF in morning and afternoon ARE MAJOR INSTIGATORS!

We in the Dallas area have been dealing with and they are just getting worse and worse! Thank your lucky stars you are not living here.

37. This is what I sent 'em.
Words can't describe what I'm feeling right now. I think it's utterly shameful that your station would protest a woman who lost her son in Iraq. You sit there and talk about supporting Bush, but I wonder how many of your disc jockeys have served in the military?

What right do you have condemning a woman that has lost her son? Whether you agree with her or not, losing a child is something that can't ever be described. I wonder, have you ever lost a child?

You should be ashamed of what you're promoting and I hope you never have to feel the grief that mother has felt over losing her son.

- Sean

38. Here's what I just sent:
I remember the Mighty 1190, when KLIF was the voice of what was really happening in Dallas and North Texas, and Gordon McLendon's formula was full of life and energy. Now, apparently, you're a Fox outlet that has sent some jerk down to Crawford to harass a Gold Star Mother who has figured out, like me (a disabled US Army Vietnam vet) but unlike you, that this war is based on lies and has been prosecuted by a sad, strutting little draft dodger who isn't even man enough to say he's sorry... about ANYTHING.

It must suck to work for a once-great radio station.

(Signed, etc.)
