A number of conservative websites are raising the issue that a pro-Islamic group may have had a hand in what they are calling a "force firing" of morning host Fred Grandy by Citadel's WMAL-AM (630) in Washington, DC, and are calling for a boycott of the station. According to Accuracy In Media's Cliff Kincaid, while the news/talk station claims he resigned, he was instead "essentially forced to leave" and points a finger at the Council of American Islamic Relations (CAIR) as possibly putting pressure on the station over his Islamic comments. Grandy tells AIM, "My wife and I have used our program over the last several months to warn about the spread of radical Islam at home and abroad. Last week, Catherine (known on the show as Mrs. Fred) delivered a very tough indictment against stealth jihad, and for her efforts she was told she was off the show. I then told management without Mrs. Fred at the microphone, I could not remain either and have resigned." WMAL released a statement on their website, saying, "Fred Grandy has informed WMAL of his intention to resign from the station and its morning program, The Grandy Group. Veteran broadcast talent Bryan Nehman will continue to anchor the morning program and in the interim will be joined by several notable guest hosts and regular contributors. The station’s morning show will also continue to provide the latest news, traffic and weather reports to its audience." One group, the Virginia Anti-Shariah Task Force is organizing what they are calling "Call Out WMAL," and asking people to call the station Monday and Tuesday to demand Grandy's return. The group's chairman now calls WMAL the "first Shariah-compliant radio station in America," despite a list of talk hosts that includes syndicated conservatives Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin and Sean Hannity.
