As a service of the Department of Defense, AFN does not advertise on Mr Limbaugh's program, offer products for sale, or sponsor any of the programs we relay to our audience.

The American Forces Network does not censor content and we do not seek to protect our overseas Department of Defense audience from hearing views with which they may disagree. Our mission is to offer program choices, which includes both the one-hour versions and three-hour version of various popular political talk shows.

To review our radio services/schedules, please visit www.myafn.net.

Thanks for your support of the troops and for your interest in AFN.

Since when did calling a young woman a slut and a prostitute for testifying before members of Congress about women's health issues qualify as political talk? Since when is telling a young woman to post sex videos on-line for his viewing enjoyment qualify as political talk? Since when does telling a young women who you do not agree with to shut up and shut your legs qualify as political talk?

This is not political talk. This is misogynistic HATE SPEECH.

It is not acceptable in a civilized society. It is destructive and undermines our political process.

The women of American can only assume that since you continue to promote this speech, you agree with it.
