Any Opie & Anthony fans here?

[Jason the slasher guy]

Yes we need more safe nonthreatening entertainment...how fun.

Ever hear of the term if you don't like it turn it off.

I'm sure some of you hypocrites of thrown that term at people.

[Vibranium]

um not really...as a 35 year old bi racial man who grew up getting s**t for being biracial, I tend to not go that route if I want to insult someone

you can be "edgy" and not be a racist bigot

go watch some Bill Hicks or George Carlin

Or Pryor, Rock, Oswalt, CK, Tyler, Peppitone, Bamford, etc, etc, etc.

If listening to some racist misogynist moron is the only way you can get your rocks off, the cowards Rush Limbaugh and Alex Jones still have jobs.

[Crazy Diamond]

O&A always sucked and the only reason for their existence was to get mocked by Howard Stern. Looks like your precious free market spoke up and said "Sorry, racist idiots aren't bringing in ad revenue so there goes your job." He dates a seventeen year old, he's a hatemonger, and he has no sense of humor the minute his BS is thrown right back at him. F' Anthony Cumia.

[Professor Moriarty]

I'm a fan, I disagree with his firing.

good luck with trying to have a rational debate about it online.

Bill Cosby has been funny as hell for decades, and he's about as threatening as a teddy bear. I'd rather listen to him than knuckledraggers like Opie and Anthony. Cumia got just what he deserved. Good riddance.

I agree.

If only because, in nearly every case I've seen, Opie and Anthony fans are incapable of having a rational debate. It usually breaks down to:


* WAAAAAAH PC POLICE
* WHAT ABOUT FREEDOM OF SPEECH?
* HE JUST SAID WHAT EVERYBODY THINKS ANYWAY

And so on. The first is whining. The second is not applicable. And the third is wrong.

What would you like to debate?
How would you like to defend the words he used?
Do you think XM is censoring the man?
Come on. The floor is open.

[Michael P]

He dates a seventeen year old

Did not know THAT.

[Darrell D.]

Did not know THAT.

Puts the 'picture' incident in a different light.
He was photo-creeping on a woman, and got called out on it by the woman.

The folks that owned the channel did turn it off, they jut didn't want to associate , or be associated with the vile scumbag anymore

Rationally, why would his employers want to be associated with what he said in any way?

[Darrell D.]

Not a first amendment issue, at all.
The government didn't prosecute or attempt to censor what the tone-deaf moron said.
Private companies, however, have the option of not wanting to associate with someone that is, at the very least, a very disturbed individual with anger management issue.

[Vic Vega]

I'm only surprised that Cumia lasted as long as he did.

I would have thought that 2002 "sex in the church" fiasco that got every one of the affiliates that played that day's O&A show fined by the FCC would have done it for both of them.

Say what you will about Howard Stern, he never got the affllates fined.

[Vibranium]

Stern did rack up some fines for NBC early in his career, IIRC
