And remember what happened after they got canned at WAAF?  Next stop L.A.?

This action only attacked the symptom, not the problem.  The REAL problem 
here is companies will put this type of act on the air in the name of being 
"outrageous" and "edgy" (and audiences that flock to it).  While Stern has 
turned into kind of a one-trick pony, there are still any number of shows 
of this ilk...Bubba The Love Sponge, John Boy & Billy and I'm sure 
others.  I'm sure we haven't heard the last of O&A.
