DD,

>Well, sure, but the folks at ABC also have (and this is where I think I'd fault them) what I'd think is an over-sensitivity to being 'politically correct'.
Well, I'm no fan of political correctitude, but I wouldn't want to be in ABC's shoes. Your stuff gets beamed into people's houses all across the country AND they're associated with Disney. So I'm sure every person with a small child feels free to tell them how to behave.

> by the sheer force of their 'presence' gain some significant inroads.

What's the difference between that and coersion? Now remember here we're still discussing the general public. Small minded, weak willed simpletons all around us.

> only reinforces the notion that there is a sort of agenda.

Sure. Everyone has an agenda - Limbaugh has his agenda, ABC has theirs, etc. Maybe it's not a conspiracy, but the act of making a plan and following through on it means you have and agenda.

>>I also think that it's an indisputable speculation, that Limbaugh would alienate more viewers than he would draw in.

It wouldn't require cajones. It would require stupidity or a death wish.
