Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s Radio (R) Show on WABC Radio was canceled and he was suspended by the station over allegations he made about the 2020 election, according to a report from The New York Times.
“We’re not going to talk about the fallacies of the November 2020 election,” said WABC Radio owner and host John Catsimatidis, according to the Times. “We warned him once. We warned him twice. And I got a text from him last night, and I got a text from him this morning saying that he refuses to not talk about it.
“Then,” added Catsimatidis, “he left me no choice. I suspended him.

“This directive is a clear violation of free speech,” Giuliani said in his thread. “WABC’s decision comes at a very suspicious time, just months before the 2024 election, and just like John (@JCats2013) and WABC continue to be pressured by Dominion Voting Systems and lawyers for the Biden regime.”
Giuliani has been a common spreader of false claims about fraud in the 2020 presidential election, for which he faced financial consequences. He filed for bankruptcy late last year, shortly after a jury ordered him to pay $148 million to former Georgia election officials who he incorrectly claimed committed fraud in the 2020 election.
In a filing earlier this week, the former New York mayor’s lawyers said he is struggling to find someone to help him with the accounting tasks in his bankruptcy case. He contacted “several accounting firms” for help, but “no one seems interested in taking on the assignment.”
