Woman who says she was fired for bumpersticker is offered job; Liberal radio faces attacks

Published: Wednesday March 15, 2006



The San Diego affiliate of Air America Radio has offered a job to Linda Laroca, a Vista, California woman who is suing her former employer after purportedly being fired for having the progressive talk radio station’s bumper sticker on her car.

“KLSD has offered her a job in the sales department with a guarantee that if she has a KLSD bumper sticker on her car, she won’t be fired,” KLSD radio host Stacy Taylor told RAW STORY.

He was uncertain whether Laroca would accept the offer. Laroca could not be reached for comment.

In a lawsuit filed Feb. 21, Laroca alleged that Beverly Fath, her former manager at Advantage Sales and Marketing, spotted the KLSD bumper sticker on Laroca’s car in a grocery store parking lot, where they had met to exchange some paperwork. According to Laroca’s suit, Fath called KLSD “that Al Franken left-wing radical radio station,” told Laroca that she could be a member of Al-Qaida, and fired her on the spot.

2. I love these stories that turn
out so well for the people who are fired by the brain dead kool-aid drinkers of America.

5. This is good; unfortunately,
a better job offer is going to go to that kid in Colorado who taped his teacher, or the "young Republicans Club" "cub reporter" who spent his Thanksgiving vacation touring Baghdad . . .

Mark my words . . . you'll be hearing those kids' names in the "liberal media" . . .
