The reason i suggested calling and writting is that the guy on the phone said he would definitely be lodging this complaint. Then he suggested I also email. I interpreted that as a double whammy.

Today I am going after the American Forces radio. This really pisses me off. Women make up 14% of enlisted soldiers and 16% of commissioned officers. By airing limbaugh's show, they are in essence calling their active duty women sluts and prostitutes, who should be making porn for the internet.
