This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.
Xm_satellite_radio_logo The two leading satellite radio networks, XM and Sirius, are still attempting to seal a merger deal under heavy scrutiny from antitrust forces. That job just became a little harder with a new shock jock scandal in the making that could make the Imus story look like a small blip.
XM satellite radio hosts Opie and Anthony recently broadcast a skit segment in which a character homeless man visits the show and talks about forced sex with the Secretary of State Condi Rice—with the encouragement of the show hosts.
The segment is not only vulgar, but pretty violent (warning: extremely vulgar language). As XM and Sirius attempt to woo Capitol Hill for a smooth merger, it seems like only a miracle will save these hosts that were fired before for going over the line.
