A San Francisco talk radio station pre-empted three hours of Dr. Laura Schlessinger on Friday in response to a campaign by bloggers who have recorded extreme comments by several hosts and passed on digital copies to advertisers

COMMENT:Travis Armstrong and Laura Schlessinger did not publish their regular columns on Sunday January 14, 2007, Santa Barbara News-Press. There was no notice of the change.

From The New York Times: "David Millstein, the (News-Press) paper’s general counsel, acknowledged that Mrs. McCaw, who bought the paper from The New York Times Company in 2000, was feeling victimized by the negative things being written and said about her. And he observed that journalists writing about other journalists meant that a bias against his client was built into much of the coverage."
