3. Lawsuit is good

Sat Mar 3, 2012, 04:03 PM

Mar 2012

Calling Flute a prostitute is actionable. Malice will be easy to prove, he's got a long history of malice toward all women except whatever "beard" he's keeping to work as his hostess. And maybe even her.

Protest letters to local radio stations that carry the dirtball are also a great idea. These are our airwaves and we need to clean them up of hate instead of the occasional f-bomb. A cc to the FCC is necessary, of course.

He has needed to go for a long time.

I not only want him off the air and living in obscurity, telling everybody at the 19th hole what a big shot he used to be, I want him poor. Lawsuits are good.
