Yesterday, someone posted a copy of the email WXRT sent out to its subscribers asking them to help stop the Performance Tax proposal. WXRT always sends out their subscriber emails making them appear that it came from one of their DJs on a rotating basis. It just happened to be Lin Brehmer's turn this time. Lin posted up the following on his Facebook page:
"If you have received an email from my place of business concerning a political action and it is allegedly from me, rest assured I did not write the email; I never read the email; and i certainly never endorsed the email before it was sent to over 100,000 listeners. It's just something they do. Send out emails and sign my name to them without my knowledge. I will always be on the side of the musicians."
