 talk host fired
WMAL also asked Graham to speak to the station's advertisers and its employees about the controversy.
Chris Berry, WMAL's president and general manager, disputed Graham's characterization, saying in an interview that "no one involved in this decision ever had any contact with anyone from CAIR." Instead, he said, Graham was terminated because he violated station policy and disregarded "management direction" to redress it.
Officials at WMAL, which is owned by the Walt Disney Co., had initially declined to take disciplinary action against Graham, defending his comments as part of the overheated rhetoric of talk radio.

 FrontPage magazine.com :: CAIR 1, Free Speech 0 by Joel Mowbray
Washington, D.C. talk radio station WMAL, 630 AM, has caved to pressure from the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a group that has savaged journalists, critics of radical Islam, even the Fox TV show “24”—but which just as steadfastly has refused to specifically condemn various Islamic terrorist organizations.
In buckling to pressure from CAIR, WMAL has sided with an organization that continually demonizes genuine criticism of radical Islam as “Islamophobia” and has never specifically condemned radical Islam or Islamic terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah.
Not only did WMAL side with organization with three former officials who have been convicted, arrested, or deported on terror-related charges, but it demanded an apology for comments that were far from flippant and were not beyond the pale.

Furthermore, WMAL doesn't apply the same standard to their other radio show hosts; one in particular constantly drones on with the "Bush is a liar" meme.

 Dhimmi Watch: WMAL succumbs to dhimmitude, suspends Michael Graham
When WMAL brushes that aside and caves in to intimidation by CAIR -- and falls for its false fatwa -- it becomes that much more difficult to speak about the roots of Islamic terror, and how we must meet its threat.
Then if, after having been presented with the evidence, WMAL still refuses to reinstate Graham, let as much economic damage be inflicted on that station, and on anyone who continues to advertise with it or has anything to do with it, as is possible.
There has to be steady countervailing economic pressure brought to bear on WMAL, its advertisers, and its owners (whoever they are) so as to ensure taht the terrific pressure that Muslims will bring to bear, is met with an equal, or perhaps unequal, reaction.

 Dhimmi Watch: WMAL fires Michael Graham, earns the opprobrium of all free people
More effective than a simple statement to the station, WMAL, would be a statement as well to Disney, that owns WMAL, that makes clear you will not be visiting Disneyworld, not be attending Disney movies, not buying Disney products, and will do everything you can to persuade others to boycott Disney as well.
WMAL replied:"....our discussions with Michael were made independently without any discussions or influence by ANY third party." Well, my Mama didn't raise no stupid children.
CAIR is always the third party in the background and out front when something like this happens, despite their lack of credibility and the records of arrests and convictions of some of their head honchos.
