RADIO WAVE OF ANGER OVER ASIAN SLAP
January 22, 2005 -- A popular hip-hop radio show is in hot water over a parody that mocked victims of the South Asian tsunami catastrophe, calling them "screaming *****s" and "little Chinamen."
Yonkers-based Asian Media Watch accuses the WQHT/Hot 97 "Miss Jones in the Morning" show of "repeated racist attitudes" and demands the program's "elimination."
"The host broadcasts a horrifying song that mocks the dead South Asian tsunami victims, uses the racial slurs '*****' and 'Chinamen,' and calls the drowning victims '*****es,' " said AMW director Kai Yu in a letter to Hot 97's John Dimick.
Station-owner Emmis Communications issued an apology late yesterday.
"We apologize to our listeners and to anyone who was offended," Dimick said. "[The show's entire seven-person staff] has agreed to contribute one-week's pay to the tsunami-relief efforts." John Mainelli

That Hot97 shit is just wrong...I don't even listen to the radio, but still...that's not right at all.

LMAO @ them getting pissed because the asian chick wasn't in on it. If she did some shit on slaves and cracking jokes about it then there would be a riot. Callin' her superior and shit because she isn't on it. That's fuckin ridiculous.
Fuck Hot 97. The song is disgusting.

Let me lighten things up here:

When you jump on a trampoline, you take your boots off.
How do you make a dead baby float?
Take your foot off of it's head.
What's funnier than a dead baby?
A dead baby sitting next to a kid with down syndrome.
What does a bum call a dead baby in a dumpster?
A Freeloader.

There's a difference between cracking a joke in front of your homie and broadcasting a joke on the radio. It wasn't necessarily tasteless to me, but there were people who heard that and lost family and friends to the tsunami.
I'm sure you wouldn't put a dead baby joke on blast on the radio and not think you were going to get some heat for it.
These idiots just want ratings. I hope they lose their jobs instead.
-
what do you need when you have 50 babies up to their necks in sand?
more sand.
-
all of yall shut the fuck up with these jokes. if ya'll really think thats funny, ya'll have issues.......
-
i got issues then
some ppl needa loosen up, this skit was a joke obviously...
-
it aint about loosen up, its about a tragedy and yall crackin baby jokes. wtf ??? some of yall sick in the head
-

aint nothin funny about 100,000 people dying...even if its a joke, its just fucking stupid...i dunno what those people in hot97 were thinking...
making a joke out of this issue is like the same thing as making a joke outta all the people dying from 9/11 attacks...
-
exactly... on top of that.. there are blatant racist terms there.. they should have the same fate as that weatherman dude..
-
wow, fuck hot97 even more than usual
-
hot 97 morning show ratings are low so there trying to do anything to get some attention

That's because they got some rude bitch on in the morning. Nobody wants to hear that in the morning. Maybe in the afternoon.

this whole thread is dissappointing....i rarely come into Outbound and when i come here i read stupid threads like this and "50 only got shot 3 times". fuckin waste of time.
peace

I can't see how anyone could regard this as a funny joke. How is singin about people being swept away by the wave and drowning funny? There ain't no funny punchline or nothing in the song. Just racist remarks and stating the fact that a lot of people died. This is just disrespectful and stupid. Disrespectful to asian people, relatives and friends of the victims and to people who just happened to listen to this garbage.
I am a firm believer that you can make jokes about everything. But you have to pick your moments. Playing shit like this on the radio about 250.000 dead people so everyone can hear it ain't that smart. Plus as I said before this wasn't even funny. Being funny and humorous is an art, and these people certainly don't know it. I hope the people responsible get fired.

ok for the "you needa loosen up" type ignorant idiots...lets say your mom jus died...i come to your funeral..make a joke bout your mom, maybe including her death...would u get pissed? hmm ok, then i tell you to shut the fuck up you need to loosen up...wut would u think bout me?.....if u would laugh and say ur laid back...then u do have issues.
