He was Jussied.
The Right is so bereft of hate that the Left has to fake hate crimes against itself.
When you meet someone how do you tell if they are vegan of sexually confused?
They will tell you 5 times in the first 3 minutes.
Well, prison will offer many new adventures for him.
It says as of Sep 13 he was taking a leave of absence and his tweets end there.The link to his page on the WWL site now says Access Denied.
Entercom is the second biggest radio corporation (station owner) in the US only behind iHeart.They bought the CBS-radio-owned stations and have many sports talk outlets.
He figured he could cash in since they’re such a huge corporation. I believe their Boston station WEEI has openly gay Steve Buckley; yes he did “come out” but Buckley smart enough
not to do a Jussie stunt like this.
My guess is he was told the password for the WWL twitter account and made the anti-gay comment...from his own phone! Caught.
More info from a Times-Picayune article that was reproduced on the
RadioDiscussions messageboard (note that it says Dunlap was under financial strain):
New Orleans police on Thursday obtained a search warrant seeking information from WWL Radio host Seth Dunlaps cellphone, which is at the center of a high-stakes investigation involving allegations of extortion, according to multiple law enforcement sources.
The warrant seeks information from the service provider T-Mobile. Its a move aimed at verifying claims made by WWL Radio and its parent company, Pennsylvania-based Entercom Communications, that a homophobic message aimed at Dunlap and sent from the radio stations account was actually sent by Dunlap himself.
According to an NOPD report, WWL Radio made those claims after it hired a forensic specialist who examined the stations Internet system, software and hardware.
The radio station has said Dunlap sent the tweet and then demanded nearly $2 million from the station, citing the insult and threatening workplace harassment-related litigation. Dunlap was facing significant personal financial strain, according to the station.
The station told the NOPD that the forensic investigation found an IP address a unique number given to a piece of hardware, such as a cellphone connected to the tweet that was associated with Dunlaps phone.
Megan Kiefer, Dunlaps attorney, has disputed the claims, saying the radio station has not done anything to prove them. She’s noted that her client passed a lie-detector test centering on his denials that he sent the tweet in question.
She has also said that WWL Radio went to the police only after the breakdown of negotiations to settle Dunlaps complaints about a work culture he perceived as homophobic.
>>She also said that WWL Radio went to law enforcement only after the station unsuccessfully tried to settle Dunlaps workplace complaints for a low amount.
