In May 2007, XM received a cease and decist over comments made on The War Room with Quinn and Rose. The comments made their way to FreeRepublic.com, which cited the XM show, "Dean called Kansas Gov.

XM responded to the cease and desist order saying that they are not responsible for content on channels programmed by Clear Channel, and that further issues should be taken up with the show and Clear Channel.
