They are not taking a stand on an issue. In fact, the so called boycott was shortlived, because if I'm not mistaken, they have a request to interview Ian. So much for taking a stand.

You are correct. I would like to see the entire interview. In essence, I agree with him. People easily confused patriotism with nationalism. I personally think, like ktsnake have said, his comment went above the head of the listener of "Free Beer and Hot Wings."
I suspect the station is in turn using this ban as a public relations gimmick- create controversy, come across as the "all American" patriot station, etc. All popular radio stations are media whores.
