The audio clip has Severin speaking of "criminaliens" crossing the
border, as described here:
http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2009/04/30/radio_host_suspended_for_criminaliens_remark_1241133030/
but to my ear that's not an ethnic slur. Severin likes to call
undocumented aliens "criminals" on the basis that their entry into the
country is unlawful.
I don't listen to Severin's show (the preening surpasses even Dylan
Ratigan), but this seems to be a bum rap.
