Nice.

And as for this controversy over the song, I have to say with all the provocative racial material on the show, I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. But this actually coming from Cox took be aback. I figured some advocacy group looking for publicity would make an issue of it before the company he works for, for fuck's sake.

But the nigger part in this song is in no way in a derogatory manner!!! i would have to think Bubba is right, that it is some brothers on another station trying to get him in trouble!! This is no where near some of the real shit Bubba does!!

[Steve44]

Ahem......Nigga milky

[milkman]

No fluff allowed here!!! I was reporting it in a news type fashion!!!

I thought it was an HR issue from within the Cox building. Either way, this is the kind of shit that happens when you're on FM. At least we hopefully only have another year or so of this FM bullshit left.

The FM show has provided some great content, and despite people's hatred of it, I think it breathed new life into the show in 2008 because they were forced to do things differently and expand their subject matter.

But this kind of thing is only going to get worse as the show grows. And in today's environment, the controversy won't help popularize the show, but may end up killing it on FM.

But now Sirius will prolly use this as another ploy to lowball him!!!

Chob, I think it was from someone in Miami on another station making the complaint, at least what Bubba seemed to leak out.

Oh ok, I started listening in the middle of the conversation this morning.

[milkman]

They did turn it into an HR issue though, and Bubba was supposed to have a hoopla today with HR, and others!! Be interesting to hear how that went tomorrow!!!

The know if they turn it into an HR issue it will be bigger than it really is!! We all know how HR can be!! Fuckin loser fucks for the most part!!!
