Have John and Ken gone too far?

...we can only hope. Of course, Chump Channel would simply get another a$$hat magnet to replace them with. Chump Channel has been met with sponsor boycotts regarding professional racist Mark Belling at WISN Milwaukee, and refuses to remove him from the air...

'nuff said.

Simple enough plan. I will add, especially in a press release. Sounds like he was race hustling or poverty pimping to me, but that is just my opinion about people mindlessly publishing their phone numbers in press releases when it comes to what some may call hot button issues.
 
John Chester Kobylt was a first class jerk when he worked at WENY. Maybe he has changed his tune, I just merely rememeber him as someone i was happy to see leave!

Now they are facing a boycott - could this be the end for they career.

They've faced many boycotts before, and they'll get through this one.

You guys don't get it. They are being helped by this. A boycott by a nutty left-wing group (redundant, I know) is exactly what these guys want. Free publicity all day long, and their list of sponsors will in fact grow because of this.

Radio doesn't have the television equivalent of "sweeps weeks", but if it did, these guys would want the boycott to come during that time. They'd schedule it if they could.

And folks around here are wondering if this is the end of J&K? Quite the opposite, this is proof that after all these years they are still on their game. These guys run the station and that won't be changing anytime soon. Just ask Ziegler.
 
The guys cume around 1 million listeners each week. Is Kobylt a jerk? Oh yeah. Does he entertain the masses and keep ears glued to KFI? You bet.

They're not going anywhere. And I bet their next book with be even higher after this incident.
 
J&K and Bill Carroll are both getting the jump on the shooting in Seal Beach today. Eventually, the SBPD will release the names of victims and the shooter. Information KFI had within a matter of minutes via eyewitness accounts, the television networks are still playing catch-up 2 1/2 hours later.

Chalk up yet another win for KFI.

Ohhhhhhh that stings....NOT! Who is more successful and making more money? You or John?

Maybe he is not the best human being to work with, but obviously someone is willing to tolerate him.

Criticism like this is like Keith Olbermann complaining and criticizing Bill O'Reilly...
