Get him fired.

Flood him with e-mails.

Get that racist off the air. forward the following e-mail address to your friends and family members who are lawyers, Sed them to Haitian cultural clubs, Universities and colleges and regional high schools.

A little can go a long way. The Haitian diaspora has the internet at their fingertips; We can no longer let a racist, a drug addict and a lier like Rush Limbaugh spitting all venom about Haiti and Haitians without facing the consequences of his actions;that will leave ourselves open for other attacks.

Let's get together and teach him a lesson he will never forget BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY if you know what I mean. From Our Voices
Read This: "HLLN Action Alert: Rush Limbaugh's graphic race-baiting, hate tirade about Haiti, on the air on May 20, 2009 between 12-3pm for the Clear Channel Radio Syndications
HLLN URGENT ACTION APPEAL:
Hold Clear Channel Communications, Premiere Radio Networks, its advertisers, station carriers and Rush Limbaugh himself, ACCOUNTABLE for undermining Haiti by preying on prejudice, ignorance and racial hatred.

Articulating his hate in the form of a racist and sexual slur on the impoverished and voiceless people of Haiti, Rush Limbaugh, on the air on May 20, 2009, had this to say about Bill Clinton becoming a special envoy to Haiti:
LIMBAUGH: "I'm just gonna tell you, if I was named envoy to Haiti [laughing] I'd quit government.

Envoy to Haiti?

You can't even pick up a prostitute down there without genuine fear of AIDS." Source: Media Matters
mediamatters.org/limbaughwire/2009/05/...
Mr. Limbaugh apparently believes he may be as openly racist and offensive on the public airwaves about Haiti as possible without being vulnerable to the opinion of decent Americans, the global community, and especially the targeted Haitian people he wantonly so disparages.

Contrary to Limbaugh's racist fear-mongering, the "danger of AIDS is ever present in every city, every town and every hamlet on the face of the earth, and that of course includes American and European suburbia" not just in Haiti as Mr. Limbaugh's would make out. In fact, Haiti's HIV aids rate (2.2%) is lower than that of some US cities.

(Go to: HIV/AIDS in Haiti and Latin America By César Chelala, May 02, 2009- "About 190,000 Haitians, or 2.2% of [the nine million] population, are suffering from HIV/AIDS, according to UNAIDS...Currently, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico have the largest epidemics in the region -- due in part to the fact that they simply have larger populations.

More than 40% of all people who are living with HIV/AIDS in Latin America live in Brazil" ; and, New HIV rate for D.C. women higher than in Haiti.

Washington D.C., the " capital of one of the world's wealthiest and most powerful countries has an HIV infection rate of at least 3%".)

Rush Limbaugh statements feeds and are perpetuating the racist and unfounded myth that Haitians are aids carriers.

For there's a "genuine fear of aids" in all countries when one picks up a prostitutes and indulges in sexual promiscuity, not just in Haiti.

There is no special Haitian genetic trait that makes AIDS more likely to be transmitted in Haiti than in Rush Limbaugh's own hometown in the US. Haiti's HIV/Aids fallout is from sex tourism in the 1970s and 1980s.

Limbaugh's remarks are offensive, discriminatory and racially biased.

Please join Ezili's HLLN in demanding that Limbaugh's employer, Premiere Radio Networks, a wholly owned subsidiary of Clear Channel Communications (clearchannel.com/) pulls Rush Limbaugh show off the air, until Rush Limbaugh apologizes for his racially offensive statements about Haiti's people.

Demand that Limbaugh must apologize or get off the air. Demand accountability and that Clear Channel Communications addresses Rush Limbaugh's racial stereotyping, irresponsible language and hate-mongering before it hits the airwaves and offends a whole nation.

Limbaugh's show claims to be one of the most listened-to radio (12 to 3 pm) programs.

It is syndicated over 600 radio stations nationwide by the Premiere Radio Networks, a wholly owned subsidiary of Clear Channel Communications (clearchannel.com/).

Premiere Radio Networks is headed by Executive Charlie Rahilly.
