Citrix Acts Against Hate

Citrix_online_logo

This press release from the Council on American-Islam Relations (CAIR) hit the wires today. It thanks Citrix Online (makers of GoToMeeting, GoToWebinar, and GoToMyPC) for pulling their radio advertising from Michael Savage's syndicated talk show after he went on an on-air rant denouncing Muslims, Islam, and the Quran.

Citrix worded their announcement very carefully and appropriately. They stated that they are in full support of every American citizen's right to free speech, but that the views expressed do not represent their own and that they had ended their advertising relationship with Savage.

Bravo. Everyone is indeed entitle to free speech. But we don't have to pay them for it.


Comments:

  • Savage has a long track record of hate speech. As a Citrix customer I'm appalled and disgusted that they would advertise on his show and website to begin with. Citrix deserves all the bad press they get on this. Maybe it will precipitate some accountability in their executive management. Shame on you.
