It's insensitive but as a fan of people like Anthony Jeselnik and the like, very little things offend me. If it's funny, it's funny. Having said that, I have not heard it yet.

find so fascinating is that people here are upset about this and lose their fricking shite when similar liberal BS comes their way. It's very inconsistent.

I agree that anyone posting anything about this having anything to do with the next saints falcons game or throwing #who dat in their twitter feed are pretty sad as well. My posts in this thread and tweets are consistent with that.

I emailed a Jewelry store who sponsors that show and told them that I didn't appreciate their affiliation with this show and that I would never support their business as long as they continued to support. Email I got back:

Adam,

The views and opinions expressed in the media by 790 The Zone are those of the hosts and do not reflect the views and opinions held by D. Geller & Son. Our thoughts go to Steve Gleason and his family as he battles ALS and we commend him for taking a such a proactive approach towards promoting knowledge about the disease. Thank you for your interest in our connection with the 790 The Zone radio program."

Please let us know if we can be of service in the future,

Jared Morrison
Manager

You live in Baton Rouge, and emailed a jewelry store in Atlanta threatening to not do business with them?

Nope, but they don't know that. They must be concerned to take the time to email back. No company wants bad publicity over something that they pay large amounts of money for.

Yea - this is getting kinda silly now - to the point of absurdity. We all understand what was said was wrong and crossed a moral line that shouldn't be crossed. That being said, I've seen people trying to legitimately contact Ellen, now people are emailing Jewelry stores in Atlanta.

Some of you are about to go all 'Harvey Updyke' so maybe some of y'all should just walk away from TD for a bit?!

D. Gellar & Son should be boycotted, but not because they are sponsors of a radio station who had 3 guys say some really stupid shite. Boycott them because they are shady as frick.

If radio personalities have freedom to say hurtful things, then the public has the right to voice their opinions to people that affect radio stations.
