Apparently, his last show was yesterday. Im not 100% sure why his show was canceled, but it is looking like it was because he voiced support for a Ron Paul money bomb not too long ago. I searched around the internet and found these sites. I guess RT got a violation from the FEC and had to fire Kokesh. (I believe that since RT is funded by the Russian government, their station isnt supposed to voice support for a political position.)

For those who dont know who Adam Kokesh is, here's one of the most noteable things he did recently. I've always liked his show, one of the only TV shows Ive actually watched recently.

Adam Kokesh Body Slammed for Dancing at Jefferson Memorial

(Not sure what forum this is best in, so I decided to post it in general)

I was so close.

Well, it's nice to know there are other people on here that watch Adam VS the Man. Hopefully another station picks him up soon.

Very doubtful since he would be considered a liablilty now. Breaking Federal Communication Laws on air pretty much ensures that you will never work in broadcast again.

Show me the law he broke. Please. Because I just looked at the law and there is nothing there but an idle threat by some person hiding behind a corporate entity filing a FEC complaint.

Go read the link of the lawsuit where's it explained. I'm not here to do your homework for you.

Peace

In other words: Unless the revenue you bring in far outweighs any fines incurred.

Apparently I am here to do your homework, since you apparently just digest any information you hear as the truth. Please read my comments on the other thread on this topic. And now we have a direct statement from Adam that the FEC complaint had no legal basis.
