Radio Station Owner Says Giuliani Has “Three Strikes”

The New York Post reports:

Billionaire WABC radio owner John Catsimatidis on Sunday unloaded on ex-Mayor Rudy Giuliani again, saying the suspended radio host’s behavior left him little choice but to can him. The radio boss said the ex-mayor had “three strikes” against him after hearing Giuliani’s criticism on other media platforms over the weekend about his initial suspension. References to the Giuliani show have been removed from the WABC website.

“When I hired Rudy I got a lot of criticism,” Catsimatidis said, referring to​ the controversy around the ex-mayor and former federal prosecutor, including ​an FBI probe. “In this country, you’re innocent until proven guilty.” But Giuliani on Sunday again accused Catsimatidis of adopting an anti-free speech, anti-American policy at his station that not only censors his radio hosts but denies listeners of his station critical information.
