We the undersigned Air America listeners respectfully request the immediate reinstatement without prejudice or penalty of host Randi Rhodes. Her suspension comes at a time when progressive America cannot afford to be deprived of a single voice of passionate reason, even at the expense of political ego.

Her comments in San Francisco prompting her suspension did not violate FCC regulations. Though blunt and abrasive, the derogatory remarks about Senator Clinton and Geraldine Ferraro were neither literal nor delivered in such a way as to be expected to be interpreted as such. Air America's suspension of Ms. Rhodes adds considerable weight to comments delivered in a light and comedic fashion.

In these times, we treasure Air America as a beacon of truth, free from the corporate mood lights intended to color us with their agendas. The decision to suspend Randi, while perhaps valid per the terms of her contract as an Air America host, is at best a formality and not the will of her listeners. At worst, it is a discretionary action that alienates your listeners in order to smooth corporate and political feathers . We, your loyal listeners, support Randi and her decision to speak freely and we ask that you do not deny us her voice.

America for Randi
