Says that with 18,000 advertisers, 28 gone is the equivalent of losing a few fries from your fry container - no big deal; besides, 2 are begging to come back to his time slot, plus he will be announcing 3 new ones.

Says the left either doesn't understand the business or is just lying, and that they are going to blow up in frustration and anger in a few weeks when they figure out that he ain't going anywhere over this dustup.
