In a Daily Kos post, "Limbaugh ... 20090727", an editor posts a commentary about a situation of discrimination. The author had listened to the radio earlier today to hear that Rush Limbaugh (radio host/talk show host) made a very racial reference. Limbaugh states "...The next thing that you know, they will come after your Oreos, but only after Obama is out of office." Taking offense, the author believes that this epithet is blatantly racist and is loathed by all races. And I couldn't agree more.
The author states that Lambaugh deserves immediate termination and abrogation of his contract for misconduct. But because Lambaugh is bringing in money, his handlers won't do so any time soon. The money that goes to him and his sponsors is the reason why Lambaugh is still the radio host he is today. The author believes that Lambaugh doesn't deserve the subscriptions to his sites or the donation money he receives. The more provocative he his, the higher his ratings will go. And thus, his show will be alive and healthy with non-stop incoming money. More money, more problems.
In this topic, the author's audience would be everyone in the nation because we are all different races and none of us like discrimination against our own kind (except Lambaugh). The racial terms towards a specific race is discriminating and degrading to everyone. According to the author and the comments posted on this topic, Lambaugh is ignorant and openly racist. Being a minority myself, I couldn't agree more with the author that this discriminating term and racism is wrong and the money isn't worth such degradation (especially towards our president). Overall, the author's argument against racism is very affective in situations dealing with all the various citizens in the United States.
