XM SATELLITE SUSPENDS SHOCK JOCKS OPIE & ANTHONY
[SOURCE: Reuters]
Shock jocks "Opie & Anthony" were suspended on Tuesday from their satellite radio show for 30 days after remarks by a guest who said he fantasized about sex with U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and first lady Laura Bush. In the latest outcry over radio content widely criticized as crossing the bounds of good taste, the company that carries the show, XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc., said it "deplored" the comments made about a week ago on the program, hosted by Gregg "Opie" Hughes and Anthony Cumia. The hosts issued an apology soon after the original airing, but XM said it was not convinced the two were sincere. The Opie & Anthony Show has gotten the two into hot water before. They were fired from a New York station for a 2002 broadcast in which they encouraged couples to have sex in public places.
