A black man being elected and then re-elected President literally slowly drove a radio personality insane until he finally snapped, publicly harassed a black woman, got beat up, got laughed at, went on a racist tirade on Twitter, and then got fired.

Not that it's related, but I'm sure if I scour/lurk reddit long enough, I'll find a photoshopped Die Hard pic of Ant with a "I hate &$;;-:s" sandwich board.

I'm honestly waiting for the woman who attacked him to given an interview where she reveals that he actually propositioned her thinking she was a prostitute and that's why she hit him.

No no. The icing on the cake would be the woman being a transexual.


And I find it kind of funny that Ant gets fired for this but Troy Quan was only suspended and removed from the air for his on-air homophobic rant/fight. That poo poo was rough to hear.

Something about his version of events really doesn't stack up.

Firstly, he said that it was the photo he took that made her angry, yet she's quite clearly pretty agitated already in the photo.

Secondly, knowing that she was agitated and didn't want her photo taken by some guy creeping about the streets at 3am, he took it anyway.

Even if his portrayal is half accurate, I'm guessing she gave him a slap because he was being a dick and he immediately launched in to calling her a friend of the family oval office or whatever and that earned him another round of punches. I am in no doubt that some sort of verbal exchange took place before that photo was taken, even if his claims of photographing the next person to walk down that street are true.

At no point do I believe he was innocently taking pictures of scaffolding at 3am when he happened to catch a girl in a shot who then immediately launched a left hook at him.

I do believe he was just taking random pics of people--probably without asking.

Also on the last show (ever), I remember hearing a bunch of paparazzi camera clicks when Sandy Kane came into studio. Maybe he has one of those loud-rear end multi-click cams and the chick got all defensive and paranoid when she heard the shutters. I know I'd freak the gently caress out (not violently) if I found myself being tracked by an active camera at 3 AM in the city.

Oh the insane guy who went from a funny shock comic to a dude who ranted near daily about how he wants to shoot black folks got fired after being beaten up by a black lady.

Yea I'll probably listen to the next show then, maybe things will be funny and not interrupted by awkward stormfront rants.

Yeah, this much is painfully obvious, and it's enough to carry the story until the entire channel gets leveled. I'm astonished to say it, but Ron and Fez are actually lucky to have moved to Raw Dog SiriusXM Comedy Hits Ninety Nine.

Yeah I'm kind of getting at the fact his story doesn't add up. If he was truly attacked for nothing why wouldn't he have defended himself at all physically from being battered by a woman? I think they definitely argued before/during that picture which led to lil anthony being boxed up by a broad.

To be fair the kind of gun owners who loudly go on tirades about how ready they are to straight murder people are usually the biggest pussies in the world so it's not really surprising when someone actually swung on him he didn't do poo poo, man or woman.

I wanted to be a neo deconstructivist, but Mom wouldn't let me.
Anthony is a funny dude but I too got to the point where I would change the channel when he went on his race or politics tirades. The sad thing is that as much as they cover other people getting fired or in trouble over this stuff he is too off his nut to know that this would happen to him. I doubt he will "get his head on straight" or whatever because he is on twitter arguing today, still. Telling people to retweet his "racist" tweets, like he said nothing wrong.

That being said I would listen to the Opie and Ron show all day long. Opie and Sam wouldn't bother me either, honestly.

Just woke up and had the same thought. Wow, didn't expect them to actually do that. Oh well, at least I have years and years of backlog shows.

Opie & Ron show would be great since Ron is maybe the only guy who is funnier than Anthony Cumia, Opie & Anybody Else would be awful.
