Did WRKO Air "Dead Kennedys" Track on Savage Show Last Night?

Brain cancer....not funny. I will make jokes about anything, but cancer is strickly off-limits. There's nothing funny about it. Savage is truely classless, now there's a shocker. In another board, I mentioned how I couldn't stand Ronald Raygun. But...I don't wish alzmeimers on anyone and I hold high regard for Nancy Reagan for dealing with that difficult situation.

I totally second that. Cancer is no laughing matter. Believe me, I know it all too well. I lost both my parents to cancer, my Dad in 1999, my Mom in 2004. My own wife is a 9 year cancer survivor. Ted Kennedy, whether you agree with him/his politics or not, deserves some dignity as a cancer sufferer and should not be the fodder of some "ID10T" talk show host's sick humor. Nobody deserves that kind of belittling humor, anywhere.
 
See the guy down in PA.... Madden on ESPN radio in Pittsburh that let loose with this gem...

"I'm very disappointed to hear that Senator Ted Kennedy of Massachusetts is near death because of a brain tumor. I always hoped Senator Kennedy would live long enough to be assassinated.

I wonder if he got a card from the Kopechnes."



I think he got his backside chewed

wow, that's harsh...
 
The guy basically welcomed the assassination of a U.S. Senator.

I'm all for free speech...but it's unfunny commentary like that that's going to get us all squelched.

FYI...he was "reprimanded and told to apologize" Which he did.

And it ends there.

Oh...sorry...he was taken to dinner to discuss the issue.

Sounds like hell.

I did want to know, though... do you have a source for this? I wasn't able to find on by using Google.
