I'm really curious as to what your definition of blowing up is. Does there need to be a congressional hearing?

If Obama comments on it and gets his licks in on Ant I might die of irony.

Right, but the reason why it's not massively blowing up and everywhere is because there's a lot of reading involved. "VIDEO: National DJ calls woman a N***** C*** to her face!!" generates more clicks than "Radio DJ says racist things" then a series of 15 tweets and 45 minutes of show audio. His tweets were no worse than he's said on any given day.


Yeah I was just thinking the same thing. Why now?

He says the same awful things day in day out on twitter, endlessly repeating the same arguments and retweeting every single story the listeners send him with a black perpetrator. The stuff in the jezebel article is far worse than anything from the past couple of days. He openly talks about frequenting and bringing some of his material from Niggermania for heaven's sake.

Twitter is fantastic, because it gives really loving stupid people a platform to display their idiocy for the world to see. It seems obvious why most celebs have people to run their social media stuff.

I mean all he really had to say about this was that he had an altercation in Times Square with somebody who was upset at being included in a photo he was taking. He probably would have garnered some actual sympathy for that, but instead he used it as a platform to spout more of his terrible opinions.

Edit: I hope the woman who punched him in face turns out to be that Agatha woman he's always arguing with on Twitter.

Because it's the perfect story.

Racist shock jock who frequently talks about how he's ready to shoot black people if they try anything with him is beaten up by a black woman because he was taking her picture without permission as others look on and laugh.

It's... beautiful.

You can't just go beating people up because someone took your picture or called you a name...

You also can't just go screaming ":supaburn: friend of the family! :supaburn:" in the middle of Times Square without your black cuckolding fantasy finally happening, but not like this...not like this

As much as I basically hate Anthony it kinda sucks that Opie and Jim got swept into the "racism runs deep" thing as I'm pretty sure that neither of them is actually racist. Certainly not in the category of racist that Anthony is in.

He's also kind of racist about black people but he's far more even handed than Ant and it's born mostly of him being a dummy as opposed to Anthony and his gleeful hatred.

Jim has flip-flopped on politics a lot, and I don't mean that in a bad way. Opie has too. There's been many cases when they've gone into a discussion with their beliefs and tried to stand their ground, but eventually they listen to the other side. Anthony? He will eventually regress to a toddler and start playing stuff from the replay machine over dissenting opinions.

I stopped listening a little before the Trayvon Martin trial, and I really think that when Patrice died is when the show started to go downhill. He would keep Anthony and his stupidity grounded, now there's nobody except callers to defend black people to him.

The show went downhill the second the name "Obama" was first uttered on air. Ever since it's been a steady decline that ended with Patrice's death being the biggest break in the dam that is Ant's racism.

WE MUST RETURN TO THE DANCE! THE NIGHT IS OURS!

Haven't really listened to the show regularly since maybe a year after Patrice died, just caught it now and then and I think Ant's racist tirades were one of the main reasons I tuned out, sometimes they were funny but you'd get that one where you were reminded that yea he is a real piece of poo poo, even if he is a funny gently caress. I don't want him to get fired but I hope this ends up with him getting suspended and coming back knowing he cant get away with his rants anymore.

I wonder how long until they track this woman down? I mean it's getting pretty good coverage and someones bound to recognize her, i would love to hear her side of the story and see just how much of his story is bullshit.
