Unplug Racist Radio * Art * Hip Hop * Street Theater * On October 28, join the Youth Media Council and a coalition of community groups to unmask Clear Channel's agenda. Station KNEW refers to immigrants as “vermin,” people of color as “criminals,” and promotes physical violence against our communities. KNEW is Clear Channel's true face unmasked — it's home to almost every well-known hate radio host, including Michael Savage and Bill Bennett.
After being fired from MSNBC for homophobic comments that directed gay people to "Get AIDS and die," host Michael Savage was quickly hired by Clear Channel in the Bay and syndicated nationally.
And last week, on his morning show, Bill Bennett said that, "If you wanted to reduce crime, you could, if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down."
While Savage and Bennett have a right to free speech, no radio station is legally obligated to broadcast their bigoted views. The Bay Area says NO to racist, homophobic radio! JOIN US October 28!
