Edited on Thu Oct-26-06 04:53 PM by DURHAM D
She said the whole black list thing started by Free Republic. The freepers organized call-ins to radio stations all over the country saying they would boycott the station and products if they played their music.
Natalie said their manager tried to explain that the callers didn't even live in the station's listening areas but they didn't care.

I can easily quell my disgust for C&W and applaud them vigorously. |

They're not really C&W; more of a pop thing, I believe. |
