now only you with the sh1t blinders on see this as some sort of attack out of the blue on your percieved self, my post and many others have been apt -- you have played the race card

You guys really got to come with something different than "classy your using the race card". Its a tired line. I been here a long time. Find one thread I have ever started concerning race. Thats the problem, you and many others first response is what color are they? That's why there are very very few KKK or white hate group threads. Man you could post 10 threads every damn day loaded with stories about white racists. But how many do you see? Typically if anything there is a rush to defend when it involves someone white, then all of a sudden its "freedom of speech".

I never said my opinion was for ALL or most Asians. IF you want to bend over and let all the dumbasses screw you, then by all mean, go ahead and keep singing **can't we all get along***. But I will be dam if I let any bigots use stereotypes to have a laugh at my people expense.

Classy used stereotypes to making fun of Asians so I used the very same stereotypes to show how stupid he really is.

BTW, most of items of my list are true. I didn't make them up. Just ask Bill Cosby.

Don't mind classy, he's just bitter. Here's a post from awhile ago he posted in another thread.

This just rings out the true sentiments that lie in the very heart of the Republican Party and the whites who follow them. What I find sad is he waited till Dr King's birthday to announce this bs. He's been in office how long? He could have said this on 364 other days. But just like in the days of Lynching when they hung us out on trees so all could see, he picks the most notable day of the most notable black man in our modern history. Sometimes, days like this make me wish there was an all out race war so we could just settle this once and for all.

This was in response to Bush denouncing AA in college acceptance. I think in his world, "days like this" are everyday.

I have little doubt there would be just as much outrage had the Tsunami happened in Africa and a radio station made a joke song about it calling the victims the N word.

I have NO doubt you would be outraged, hence your blatant hypocrisy.

Classy, the key to life is treating others as you would have them treat you. It is NOT treating them as your paranoid fantasies ASSume they would treat you.

The sad part is, in the face of blatant racism against a race not your own you find the unmitigated gall to pull the race card and play the victim.

Why is it always the black person or the black people who are at fault? They made a bad joke worse with the use the racial slur. It was insensitive and poor taste. Should they be fired? No. Suspended? Probably. The truth is that because a group of blacks did it now its like the damn holocaust or something. OMG!!! Lets call congress to pass a law. Give me f'in break. The station apologize and the lady apologized as well. And no, who gives a flying bleep if you don't think it is sincere. I could care less, but she did apologize and it wasn't no written stuff either. So lets hang'em like some of your boys here want to do. Yeah ok. :roll: And as far as the chinese chick is concerned, if she doesn't like the black chick and its her show, then fvcking quit. She can pack her rags and beat it. You think black stations suck, then tune your asses into some country. And I'll use the classic example. Howard Stern has as his co-host a black chick, but Howard does his thing. I am sure she doesn't agree with some of the stuff he does and he can get racial, very racial, but you never read about her bitching and whining. Its a radio program designed to get ratings and sometimes the stuff is very bad in taste as was this. Now you and the lynch mob here line up and have damn cook out for all I care, but the excessive whining like a bunch a 2 dollar HOs is because the person at fault is black. So lets make sure our judgement and punishment are at the extreme level. That's what this is all about and you know it, although you aren't man enough to admit it. And once in for all they were in the wrong, no doubt. I believe they should be suspended for 2 weeks without pay minimum, but the venom being spewed here is increased because of their color, not because of the offense.

And thats all I have to say on the matter
Sincerely
Classy Sharpton

And this is why I said you lack Objectivity. What happened to John Rocker?

Classy, your reaction is indicative of many of the problems within the black community. Rather than hold your own to a higher standard, you are too quick to excuse bad behavior and blame everything on everyone else. It's a terrifying and saddening lack of personal responsibility and it's just sad.

This lady was fired from her last broadcasting job for talking about making up a Monopoly like game called "Chinkopoly." She has a clear history of making racist comments against Asians on the air. No self respecting radio station should employ her.

This has nothing to do with her color. The only one here worrying about what color she is, is you.
 

Miss Jones == pwned

At 6 AM this morning, Hot 97 announced the Miss Jones morning show is "suspended indefinitely". I posted the announcement here as an mp3.

This morning from 6 to 10 is being hosted by someone named "E-Bro" who says he will be taking calls on-air about the controversy, at 1-800-223-9797. They are also playing Jin's dis track.

Most calls so far are in support of Miss Jones and bringing back her program. They're not saying whether the suspension is permanent or temporary, or whether it is a paid suspension. Or whether the suspension includes Miss Info.

An ad for Miss Jones' special "smackfest finals" on Friday morning at Caroline's comedy club aired minutes before the announcement, but now they have said that event is "postponed."

:thumbsup:

It's sad that they have a guy filtering negative calls and airing only positive calls, though. It seems the radio station was forced to do this by advertisers, and are trying to convince them otherwise.

You are right, we don't do these things as well as your brothas and sistas:

1) We don't call our women *whores* and *bitches*.
2) We don't need Affirmative Action program just get in college. We compete fairly on our own merits.
3) Our men are not in prisons or in probation as much as your brothas.
4) Our guys don't screw as many different women as your brothas, to make as much babies as possible and then run away from responsibilty.
5) Within a few years of arrival to the US, most of us are successful, we don't need goverment handouts for generations after generations like your brothas and sistas.
6) Most of our kids have BOTH parents and SAME dad (see #4).
7) We don't cry *racist* and call Jessie Jackson or Al Sharpton everytime if things don't go our way. No justice, no peace chantings are getting old.
8) We don't murder our own as your brothas (check out the crime stats of black on black violent crimes).
9) Our meals (rice, noodles) are taste better and healthier than your meals (Churchs/KFC chickens)...(from your fried rice statement).
10) We don't create the garbage music such as rap.

Yup, you are absolutely right, we only good at booksmart, and not good for anything else. We sure don't want to end up like your brothas and sistas. We gotta act *white*....LOL.



Not cool man

:thumbsdown::|

I understand you were replying to someone else's stupid comments, but that response is ignorant

Does anyone think Hot 97 did this on purpose as a countermeasure to Star & Buckwild going to 105, in order to create controversy and get people listening to Hot 97?

I would'nt doubt it


Don't these DJs have to submit their bits/stunts to a program mananger before taking them on air? If so that would mean management was aware of what she was going to do.

I hope this is for real, not just a show to calm the public then bring her back. I sent a bunch of emails to the station and sponsors yesterday and I hope my time didn't go wasted. Btw, if FCC fines Howard Stern for his dirty sex talks, they should fine Miss Jones even more as her material was fouler, more offensive.

Both Hot97 and the Power99 segments make me so sick. I generally have alot of faith in people, but stuff like that saddens me beyond belief. A good point was made earlier: If someone overseas made a song like that about 9/11, how would Americans react? I really hope that Hot 97 feels the pain on this one. :disgust:

Yup, I bet they got 101.8% more negative calls than positive. I'm glad the b!tch got suspended.

Whoa whoa whoa... WHAT?!

Edit: Ahh, just did a little search. It's Power99. That station is complete garbage.

Power99FM: "Philly's #1 Station Hip-hop and R&B!"
Hot97FM: "The Official #1 for Hip Hop and R&B"

Do we see some sort of correlation?? NAAAAAAH!!
Both are run by Clear Channel, and both play the same garbage. At any given 3 song set, there will be Usher or Lil Jon.

I'm a Clear Channel tool and I approve this message.

Boy please I HIGHLY doubt a sista would date your corny @ss. And 2nd any dark skinned black woman I know good and full well you won't find attractive. You skank
Wow. Did you drop out of middle school? My g/f's an 8th grade teacher in Philly, you are on the same mental level as some of the academically challenged kids she tells me about. Please post in a kiddie forum, this is thread is a discussion for mature adults. Frankly, I'm surprised the Mods haven't given you a vacation yet for inciting race wars.
