Petition Against Tsunami Song on Hot 97

To: Hot 97 Radio Station in NYC

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
On January 21st, 2005, an offensive song/skit containing openly derogatory and racist overtones reached millions of listeners in New York City when it was broadcast on Hot 97's "Miss Jones in the Morning" radio show. While the radio show has a history of recording and playing such spoofs on a regular basis, the infamous "Tsunami Song" mocks not only the victims of the unfortunate recent natural disaster in Southeast Asia, but also all members of the Asian race in general with the racial slurs "chink" and "Chinamen."

Choice lyrics included:
- "All at once you could hear the screaming ch*nks and no one was safe from the wave there were africans drowning, little chinamen swept away you could hear god laughing, 'swim you b*tches swim'"
- "So now you're screwed, it's the Tsunami, you better run or kiss your ass away, go find your mommy, I just saw her float by, a tree went through her head, and now the children will be sold to child slavery..."

Just prior to the broadcasting of this inflammatory and extremely distasteful audio, the airwaves erupted into hostility when the popular morning show's hosts argued about playing the "Tsunami Song." The on-air quarrel started when Miss Info openly voiced that she had no involvement with either the production or publication of the song, as she personally found the views expressed in the song offensive. The show's other two co-hosts Miss Jones and Todd Lynn then launched into an abusive tirade against Miss Info for her lack of co-operation. At one point, Todd Lynn stated that he was going to start shooting Asians while Miss Jones told Info she's only complaining because "you feel superior, probably because you're Asian."

I'm not laughing at the actual event I'm just laughing at the song, which was hilarious in my opinion. Give me a fucking break. It's not like I'm sitting here going "HAAAAHAHAHAHAH ALL THE ASIANS DIED! AHHAHAHAHAH"

I just thought the song was funny, which is was.

that picture has been pounded into my brain so manny times
i just dont think it was fair to fire the whole crew, maybe a heafty fine, or a suspension, but not fired i just dont think that was very fair just for broadcasting a song.
now if they said "I cant believe thoes friggin idiots in asia all got killed ahaha that was funny thoes fags" that would be a whole lot different
i just thought the punishment was a little harsh and didnt fit the crime, im sorry if thats not the way you feel but its just MHO

You're so full of shit. Mr. Patriot, had anyone made a song mocking how those sissy ass bitches jumped out of the Twin Towers you would've been offended as hell. Get your head out of your ass and stop being a dipshit. The song isn't funny.

Seriously, it's just like some jackass making a song about the Twin Towers. It's a tragedy and you don't make fun of it.

Before more people lose respect for you and classify you in the league of the Mazzochi's & Lanky's, keep quiet and let it die. (No pun intended.)

You are Mazz, I was using your name as how you used to be previously. You're moving up, don't worry. You're not in his league, no one is. He's lost in his own fantasy world.

Anyways, point being it's not funny.

I'm sorry Jackal, I forgot you can tell me what is funny and what isn't.

I'm not laughing at the event I'm laughing at the song. If someone made a song up of 9/11 I'd tell them to screw themselves but I wouldn't start a damn petition or freak out and demand them to be fired or anything. That's just stupid. If you don't like it don't listen to it.

I honestly don't care if you think I'm a jackass because I don't really care what you think.

Good thing since it's unimportant what others think. Especially on a forum.

You might not put out a petition for the 9/11 song, but some God fearing country boy would. You'd probably sign it if he came to your doorstep.

I wasn't telling you what to think is funny, I just think you're tasteless in the humor department.
