Sac Radio: R-A-D Still Off-Air

R-A-D Off-Air
CORRECTION: R-A-D are still listed on KRXQ website afterall. This corrects earlier posting that the trio were scrubbed off the 98 Rock website.

Earlier posting...

A Sacramento-based syndicated morning talk show apparently will remain off-air at Entercom-owned KRXQ following criticism of jokes made about Boston, a day after the marathon bombings.

The Rob, Arnire & Dawn were originally pulled off their morning show after CBSowned KHTK 1140-AM morning host Don Geronimo criticized the trio on his show for discussing if it’s “too soon” to make jokes about Boston and joking about a “top 5 list” of reasons to hate the city.

“Maybe I’m the one with the problem. I’m the one who’s the shock jock doing the shock jock radio show and I don’t feel good doing jokes about what happened in Boston,” Geronimo said on this show Wednesday.

At one point, with fake Boston accents, Rob, Artie and Dawn talked about people losing their limbs.
