This Week: Part 2

The Most Ridiculous Things I've Heard This Week: Part 2

Round 3. 92Q Jams promoting
"The Black men's guide to cheating on your woman":
Uh hello!? I don't normally listen to this station because the DJ's are retarded and I'm just not a rap kinda gal. But I was flipping through stations and landed on them right as they were introducing the author of the aforementioned book. I ended up arriving at work and turned it off. About 10 minutes later my dad calls telling me turn the station on. Basically he ended flipping through at the same time I was and heard them. He called in and went off on them for promoting the book and said that this is one of the reasons the black community is the way it is, then he ended up calling one of the DJ's "pal" which sparked a round of laughter. After the show was over I became infuriated! Why would someone with any shred of decency promote such garbage like that? So I decided to send an email to two of the DJ's, the General manager, and the program director:

I felt compelled to email you after listening to this mornings broadcast. I don't normally listen to 92 Q Jams but stumbled across this morning right as you introduced the man with the book. I then turned it back on when my dad called to say he called in. My dad was the Pal
guy. I am utterly disgusted over the author, the book, and your willingness to promote this How to Guide. I agree wholeheartedly with what my father said. Your community, (the black community) is the way it is because of people like you and the author. By you promoting this book your letting the young men who listen to you know that itÂ’s okay to cheat. Have your cake and eat it too. We doesn't work that way pal. Does the author wonder why you can only purchase the books through his website? The reason being is because no reputable bookstore wants to sell that garbage. Instead of promoting sex and drugs (which your play list already has enough of) why not promote something that blacks need? Family and morals. And to those of you who are married with children, what is wrong with you? Suppose your child had turned on the radio just as daddy was talking about cheating on mommy. What would you have done then? It's not about entertainment. This is about real life and real people.

In closing I would just like to say that I was never a faithful listener, but because of the acts this morning, you defiantly can count me as a lost amongst your audience.

Between Baltimore City, Miss Montana aka Miss Teen USA 06, and books I almost wanted to vomit yesterday! What is the world coming to? Such a shame.
