Dear iHeartMedia:
Re: Breakfast Club Power 105.1 FM Episode on September 29, 2020
On September 29, 2020, I listened to the Breakfast Club Power 105.1 FM, a product of iHeartMedia, during my morning workout session. I prefer to monitoring the performance of companies we sponsor first-hand.
Unfortunately, I found the episode very annoying to a patriotic American. I noticed that your hosts, Charlamagne tha God, in particular, seem to recite the Democratic Party’s agenda blindly. Instead of providing facts to the listeners, then let them choose what side and views to support, the host seems to repeat the same talking point repeatedly to program his audience into unseeingly supporting the “Alt-Left” agenda. He appears to have received money from the democratic party to campaign for them on national radio.
To resolve this delinquent, I would suggest that the host admits to his faults live on air by Monday, 10:00 Tuesday, October 6, 2020 (EST). He should admit to being a political pundit working for the Joe Biden campaign. This is not what the patriotic Americans stand for. It is also a sour look on Motorlance Corp, having been closely associated with iHeartMedia. Attached to this email is a 25-minute clip recording of his utterances on air.
I am looking forward to your response in the next 24 hours before advising my board of directors to withdraw all the Motorlance Corp sponsorships for iHeartMedia.
Sincerely,
Cathleen J Glick

Dear Karen:
Re: Breakfast Club Power 105.1 FM Episode on September 29, 2020
We apologize that one of our radio host’s utterances would be annoying to you, our major sponsor. Our business model thrives on having to deliver to your audience still keep our sponsors happy.
Charlamagne tha God has received a letter of reprimand for his bias towards the left and his role in inciting identity politics. With such a vast platform, he has been advised to wake up to the fact that his views are impactful. He admitted to having a misplaced passion for the progressive agenda, which is in accordance with his values as a minority here in the United States. The host, however, denied any claims of having being paid by the Joe Biden campaign team.
However, our legal team has informed us that the host does not apologize on-air as you requested. Such a move could lead to serious legal ramifications for IHeartMedia and leave us vulnerable to our competitors. The host will, however, pay a one million dollar fine from his 2020/2021 contract. The host seems remorseful for having jeopardized the image of our crucial sponsor, Motorlance Corp. He has also offered to meet and apologize to you in person.
As the CEO, iHeartMedia, I will ensure the Breakfast Club Power 105.1 FM will continue catering to its audience, without being to the forces of identity politics. We would wish to continue with the synergistic relationship between our two companies. I will also ensure that our quality control department stays vigilant.
Sincerely,
Bob Putim
