Anthony Cumia, fired host of Sirius XM’s “Opie and Anthony Show,” defended himself today during his first post-scandal TV appearance.

Cumia was given the boot after making racially-charged comments on Twitter last week.

“I will never apologize for this; I didn’t do anything wrong,” Cumia said on Fox’s “Red Eye” on Saturday morning, as reported by Mediaite. “I go off on tears like this. I curse. I say horrific things about people who piss me off and that’s exactly what I did. Why am I going to apologize and say I am different or I changed? I haven’t. It would be a phony bogus apology. If it happened again, I would do the same thing.”

Or, as Popeye would say, "I yam what I yam, and that's all that I yam."

Leftists claim to want diversity, but it's only leftist diversity that they want. A man speaking his non-PC mind is a pariah.

The full interview is fresh air.

I have Sirius/XM but the few times I listened, it was not my cuppa. Even though I can appreciate wit, too much crude and lewd overpowers wit.

Than being said, the man is spot on about the disease of PC.

Opie and Jimmy will go back on the air on Monday and will finish out their contract. No one knows yet what will happen when the contract expires in October.

When a person acts like a pig and an animal, they should be called out on it.

Good for him. NEVER back down.

Ever.

Whew...Thank You. I thought it was just me.

I’ve seen ‘them’ literally RACE to a cross walk if they think they can inconvenience Whitey. I always try to make sure they see me scratching my nose - with the middle finger...

This guy doesn't want to accept that when someone can fire you, it just means you aren't the boss.

But he decided not to apologize, call out the hypocrisy of Sirius for firing him and is moving on to an internet gig. That makes him the boss.

“Don’t forget Water Buffalo!”...Now that made me laugh. When I lived in Muskegon, the herds would come to the water’s edge in the evening to cool off from the day’s heat.

Don’t forget Water Buffalo!

OMG, UPenn, 1990-something! Ended the career of the University president, who just died recently, btw. Unbelievable nonsense, now the unwritten law of the land.

The young men do that too, and they're never in a cross walk.

I make sure the breeze from my fender makes their saggy britches flap in the wind.

I once used my finger to call over (come here gesture) to a women who was from the Philippines. She got all angry and said that they do this only to donkeys....

I have had women get mad at me for saying “Ma’am” because they say they are not old....

I guess it is women who are the problem right (he ducks)

I think you might have heard her wrong. It means do you want to uh, make love.
