Motel 6 Refuses to Air 'Savage Nation' Radio Spots |
|
Growing list of companies reject host's bigoted rhetoric |
The Hate Hurts America Community and Interfaith Coalition (HHA) announced that Motel 6, part of the Accor North America chain of more than 950 hotels, has joined a growing list of companies that have stopped advertising or refuse to place their ads on Michael Savage's "Savage Nation" radio program.
A company representative told HHA the chain will not air commercials on Savage's program "in any market."
HHA, a group of religious and civic organizations seeking to challenge hate speech on talk radio, was formed as a result of Savage's rhetorical attacks on religious and ethnic minorities. Coalition members are calling on advertisers nationwide to stop airing commercials on his nationally-syndicated program.
