I won't be happy until all 3 get black balled from board casting, not just radio but any media forum

That was just downright disgraceful. My sense of humor can be quite mean and cruel and I think you can joke about most everything But that wasn't funny in any sort of way.

'Mayhem in the AM' radio hosts fired for mocking former NFL star who can't speak or move and communicates with eye-tracking technology | Mail Online




This is why we need gun control.
We need gun control to teach people like me how to control my gun arm as to not jerk up and miss my target on my first shot when I fire a shot at these fn azz dj's.

Re: Transcript of Atlanta radio show segment mocking Steve Gleason's ALS affliction

And on a separate thread, I am not saying this because it was N ew Orleans Saint Gleason, but it could be any ...a Falcon player.
That kind of so-called "joke" is NOT funny.
I really thought these kind of so-called "shock jocks "
got the message years ago that this kind of , I cannot even say so-called humor, is just not funny.

Being fired for them is nothing really. Hopefully, they will not get rehired elswhere. I would be afraid, very afraid if I were them. Karma. What you send out in the world, you get back. God doesn't ugly.
This same thing could happen to them .
I had to delete some things here because even saying this about them , and I do not like or side with them by any means, but it even feels bad to say and sounds awful for me to say about Karma can happen to them.


This guy ,Cellini, to even say, firing was a relief because of the station, boy!!!No kind of remorse. No even fake apology that people usually do after the fact.
These guys see nothing wrong in what they said and carefully thought up and scripted out way before they went on air.
It did not occur to any of the three of them while writing this out in private not to say this.
That is really awful.

I'm figure it is probably not the case, but I hope Steve and his family didn't hear this disgusting crap.

Totally classless that these hosts did this...

Cellini is done. Trust me. This story will be national today, and even after the public forgets next week, programmers and GM's will remember his name. I've embarrassed myself on the radio a couple times, but they were mistakes, not premeditated idiocy. Cellini should hope he has enough anonymity to land a gig at Best Buy.
