[The Politico]

Moments after news that Air America's Randi Rhodes called Ferraro and Hillary Clinton "whores” during a San Francisco appearance, the liberal talk station issued this statement:

STATEMENT OF AIR AMERICA RADIO, FROM CHAIRMAN CHARLIE KIREKER:

NEW YORK — Air America has suspended on-air host Randi Rhodes for making inappropriate statements about prominent figures, including Sen. Hillary Clinton, at a recent public appearance on behalf of Air America in San Francisco which was sponsored by an Air America affiliate station.

"Air America encourages strong opinions about public affairs but does not condone such abusive, ad hominem language by our hosts," said chairman Charlie Kireker.
