Regarding the above response:

I ran that thru my BS translator and came out with: We will continue, we don't care what you think, and we think it is funny.

That stinks. If they gave one damn they would make an ongoing on air apology.

My 2 cents

That's pretty much how I read it.

CERuppel · 03-14-2002, 05:06 PM

Has anyone gotten any responses from the media regarding this???

None on my end, except for form letters...

GRRRRR.....
animal abuse has been linked to serial murders. animal abusers are sick sick indivuals who i like take all of my frustrations out on. having working at a number of animal shelters over the years i can tell you all that dumb ass DJs don't need to encourage these pieces of *deleted* to do nasty and unspeakable crap.

^ ^ ^ ^ Those jerks live on adverse publicity ^ ^ ^ ^

I got the same letter too.

Maybe I'm naive, but I believed it! Perhaps its difficult to imagine someone doing such a thing, and easier to believe it was "Just a bit"...The thing that bothers me here, though, is that they don't sound as if they are going to change their M.O....So what's next?

The focus of the "attack" has to be on Clear Channel. There are many DooG-lovers in this Country. I am an expert on that

Hurt the Company in the pocketbook.

Going after the DJ's only boosts their ratings and invites "copy-cat" ..errr..."copy-humanoid" jerkiness by other DJ's to stay competetive.

Competetive Jerkiness

ID your local Clear Channel Station and go after them !
Let THEM do the work of contacting Clear Channel management !

Imagine if Purina or IAMS or such cancelledsome commercials?
In Ohio. or Deleware. Or New York?

Gorilla Warfare

Forget about E-mailing CCManagement. Mostly that just auto-generates BS "we are happy to receive your e-mail.."

Remember, CC will listen to one local more than a thousand e-mails. Let the Localsdistance themselves from the Co.

This is War

Yo, Gen Doog sir!

CC may not listen to one or two E-mails...

But I know my wife and her online gang...

Would a couple of thousand (unique) E-mails do the trick???

Well, that deserves a reply.
Regardless of whether your "running gag' as you refer to it, is a total and complete fabrication or not. Unfortunately the audience that listens to them believes that it is true. Therefore in good conscience the station must make up for the lack of intelligence of the listeners and stop this "bit".

Thanx Surreal.

I wish that they would have thought of this before hand though.

Isn't the idea of influence covered in college (like broadcasting 101?)? Just wonder if they were after this reaction for the publicity?

On the other side: I have gotten only one response from the news, and it was a quick "It was a gag" note. So much for that angle.
