Mojo Suspended For P***ing Off Justin Bieber?

JB, IMHO, is a talentless little twit boy-toy being dangled out in front of tweens and young teen girls in much the same manner that Fabian and other teen idols were in the heyday of early RnR. His music is of such low quality that he can't be considered any sort of serious artist and the Kardashian-like public displays and fluff pieces are going to eventually guarantee his public will move on without him.

Having said that it occurs to me that Mojo (who I do not know and have never listened to) did nothing that warranted JB's hissy-fit nor did it in any way badly reflect upon his employer. The suspension seems unwarranted. But perhaps in the future when interviewing people of limited intelligence and communication skills it would be wise of Mojo to stick to the CD liner fluff and ask simple questions that can be answered in less than five syllables and without controversy.
 
Doesn't bother me in the slightest but taking a hit in the wallet for doing so doesn't seem smart (to any interviewer).

I thought Mojo was upfront though. It didn't sound to me as if he was trying to pizz off little Bieb but then I didn't understand the inside jokes either.
 
If MOJO gets fired from CHANNEL 955 this will definately help 98.7 AMP RADIO ratings, since 98.7 AMP already got a morning show host. I want to see a bright future for 98.7 AMP.
 
I'll say this about Bieber. He is okay to listen to - if you're a 12 year old girl, and yes even though I think he is talented, he is very overrated in my opinion.
 
If CC ACTUALLY did suspend him over that, how you can see that radio station execs won't let their employees rip a talent-less artist that will fall by the wayside in a few years. I mean, c'mon! If my favorite jock got fired because he ripped on Miley Cyrus, I would IMMEDIATELY stop listening. I hate her, but that's just wrong to fire the jock because of it (hopefully I'm making sense!).
 
Isn't it written in the DJ handbook that you can't really disrespect the artists of the format you're working? Imagine a scenario where, for example, Tyler Crawford ragged on Taylor Swift on W4, and in return, Big Machine turns around and pulls all of her music from that station (which I suppose would be a task since W4 probably runs a Premium Choice playlist) - just a hypothetical... :-X
