Hmm I don't equate having dumb listeners call in about abortions to giving the Okay to drag black people behind trucks.

There is a huge difference between using other people's stupidity for "laughs" and making racist comments.

For all your headline readers there was no contest. Not even Clear channel would sanction a contest to the person who got the most abortions in X amount of time. If he gave anything out it was probably a t-shirt. Which, as anyone who listens to the show for more then 5 minutes would know, he gives out to anyone who asks for it. I thought it was a distasteful piece, and he could have found other things to do besides laugh at the stupidly of K-dog and the others.

You say to-mah-to, and I say to-may-to.

Incidentally, I don;t recall the Greaseman ever "giving the Okay" to drag Black people (or anyone else for that matter) behind trucks.

i listen to him and didn't hear this segment, but find it hard to believe. he has a 14 mo, and his cohost gave birth back in February. He has Shep Smith, Rick Levanthal, Ollie North etc. call in with regularity to discuss issues. this is not at all a Greaseman, Opie and Anthony type show. i agree that the article may be overstated.

i've got to say that this is a broadcast that could go either way.
i don't know the dj, but i could see a program like this being used to make people aware that there are people out there who are *proud* of killing unborn children. and have done it numerous times. as a "shock" tactic, it could have merit to sway fenceline people to vote prolife.
on the other hand, since its DC, and what some people are saying, i'd guess it was just a shameless attempt at boosting ratings.
