Tampa Radio: Bubba Clem Admits To Ratings Tampering

Bubba Clem
Tampa Radio personality Bubba the Love Sponge Clem admitted to ratings tampering charges at a news conference Tuesday, according to the Tampa Bay Times.

In a short statement to reporters, Clem admitted that he was contacted by a Nielsen ratings panelist and that he tried to influence that person's listening habits.

"I can't tell you how humbled and embarrassed I am," Clem said after apologizing to listeners, advertisers and staff.

Clem, who has been off the air at WBRN 98.7 FM since Sept. 26, returned to the air Tuesday morning.

Clem refused to take questions from reporters after his statement.

"It's not acceptable and I take full responsibility," he said before departing the news conference.
