Unfortunately, KKSF (910 am) is. It will be a LOT tougher.

Put pressure on the individual stations and their managers. Local groups should rallies and protests in every city. Organize LTTE campaigns shaming the station management if they continue to carry him. Make the station's call letters joined at the hip with Limbaugh's words and radioactive to local advertisers.
