ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) -- Two upstate New York radio hosts have been fired over their on-air comments about Rochester's decision to cover gender reassignment surgery for city employees.
Entercom Rochester on Thursday announced the firings of Kimberly Ray and Barry Beck from WBZA, calling their comments "hateful" and saying they don't represent the station.
Ray referred to someone seeking gender reassignment surgery as "a nut job."

This is ridiculous and WRONG. They are entitled to their opinion.

The idea of “hate” is not conveyed in their opinion. It is disgust. And there are millions of us that are disgusted with this cr**.
More evidence that we live in a politically correct world now.
More evidence that we can only publicly express liberal opinions.
I wonder if they would have been fired if they merely questioned the use of taxpayer dollars for an elective surgery.
Fair warning to all, that we are all required to express liberal thought now.
Wow. I guess they can’t sue the station? Hopefully there is a way to do that, and make it painful.
If you had two gay employees and they came to work dressed in the rainbow colors and kissing each other would you fire them?
Free speech.
Nope, FREAK trumps ALL
I guess in public we can only say “Pay for your own crap”
Liquidation centers for those who speak the truth can’t be far off.
They are entitled to their opinion and, if they own the radio station, can use that as the vehicle to express that opinion. But freedom of speech is NOT freedom from consequences. Just like those the station owner must now face any backlash from the firing.
In a situation such as you describe, if you try to fire such employees, you will be sued and dragged through the mud of legal wrangling and attempts to destroy your business.
That would be a de-nut job.

Anyone who undergoes sexual organ mutilation surgery is a nut job.
For crying out loud, its the TRUTH!
Telling the truth is what gets you in trouble now, My FRiend.
What would you do??
