   Listen you two white MF’s

   Dont you dare to peek at others, look at your own mother and family geting F***, and this happens only in your country, no where else.

2. 

   Dear fellow indians,
   Do not blame the whole American Community for the behaviour of these two Despicable DJ’s.
   Work towards removing these guys from their jobs so that they realize that they cannot get away with this kind of objectionable acts.

3. 

   What else can you expect from a bunch of illiterate, uneducated idiots who cant even run their own country without Indians

4. 

   Thanks a lot to all Americans who are condemning this . This shows your BIG heart.

   You guys are the best. Please accept my personal apologies for some of my compatriots who had posted some stupid things above. This is just their emotional outbursts and we “DO NOT” see the whole community bad.

   Who will take the pain of rallying against some idiots who just abused another national and not any of them?

   Thank again folks.

   Thank you Ed for taking the lead. You the man!

   I totally accept not to reflect hatred message like those idiots. After all, we are here to oppose it and not to join them.

   My sincere apologies.

   This is absolutely terrible thing…how can they make a joke out of this…i shud say the american of sick sense of humor…they think they r superior but i m afraid they r not…they r just bunch of lazy cocksuckers and as stupid as an ass

8. 

   Its good to see many Americans raising their voices in support of India. What those two guys have done on the radio is nothing but hatred. These guys are incompetent. They cant do anything better than talking nonsense on the radio with their two meter mouth.

   For those (Indians) who have spoken ill about USA, please refrain from doing so in future. The Americans are matured and they treat us well.
   The American justice will surely curb these kind of behaviour.

9. 

   No, I am not shocked by this incident – it only strengthens my conviction that the western world is among the most uncivilised societies in the world, which is why they have to go to such pains to prove themselves as civilised.
   This absolutely reflects on the US as a whole, their society, value system, lack of the family system and the resulting rot in every generation. I am glad that the Indian lady was absolutely professional and courteous, like only civilised people can be.
   As for the Americans, they are digging their own grave and paving their own way to hell like only primitive, moral-lacking people like them can. So much for their self-righteousness about Asia.

10. 

    I would like to request my fellow Indians not to paint the all the Americans in the image of these two despicable and idiotic RJ’s. Most Americans are polite and friendly to foreigners and immigrants from other nations.

    The Best way to deal with this is to make a complaint to FCC and make sure that there is a consequence to this kind of behaviour on radio, such as a huge fine and boycott of their advertisers.

    Dear Friends in India,

    Am also an Indian writing on this.
    Lets not forget our heritage and culture and use abusive language in this site. Pls go thru this site and air your protests thru the website and the e-mail address provided with NBC, Cingular and Verizon.

    If we also use that kind of language, there is no difference between that Star and us.

    The act done by Star is 100% condemnable and I feel pity for his language. He had shown his culture and his family backgrounds.

    Thanks

13. 

    Just to let the readers know that the RJs have grey cells most closely resembling the gorillas. Isn’t it a fact since they prematurely evolved from the land of the monkeys.

14. 

    What else do you expect out of someone who is helpless and cornered.

    We all need to realize that people like this are parasites, cancer, aberration to the civilized society.

    Feel sorry for their lives and may their souls be in peace and hopefully they would have vented out all the poison.

15. 

    This sound a bit too much. They should have a check of this kind of show offs.

16. 

    star and buc u guys are such a dickshits and deserve a hell of a whiplast on your saggy asses.. how can u guys be so rude when someone who is thousands of miles away from this part of the world is trying to help u and u fuckin’ trying to show that u are a bitch-ass son-of-a-dick…..

17. 

    Ed,

    Thanks for posting this piece. Like some other fellow-Indians pointed out before, the over-reaction and hatred expressed in some of the postings here do not reflect the view of the India community as a whole. That�s not to say that the community is not outraged by this behavior by public personalities � but there is obviously a more civilized and effective method in bringing these 2 to task, than sink to their levels!

    The information provided here is really good and per the suggestions here, I would �snail-mail� my rebuttal, as opposed to e-mailing it and risk my protest being lost in cyber space 🙂

    IMHO � The unwritten code of conduct that artists ought to adhere to in public broadcasting, should be uniform for people of all races. Minorities feel they could get away with making racial slurs, just because they are minorities and so-called �oppressed folks�. It�s ironic but there are many who have made careers out of this with limited talent!
    I think there ought to be something in place that does not let ANYONE get away with any racial slur – be it black, brown, yellow or white!

    Peace.

18. 

    those guys here thinking that americans are cool and not all americans are like this, have not lived in america. Deep inside, they sport nothing but hatered and contempt for other countries, and most care only about women of other countries they can f*ck – so those uppity indians who think that americans are good etc – you will learn when you get the chance. Star and bucwild are black, which is pretty bad, since they still have not learned after 300 years of abuse from the whitey. Maybe whiteys are right about blacks..

19. 

    hey its such a wicked thing at last i saw these americans jst using their filthy dirt coming out ‘f their mouth n not atleast killin more humans ..Am really thankful tat he(star) dint got his Gun or a inncocent gal wud av died sumwhere in INDIA n Mr. Bush wud hav send few dollaars to show his lov 4 humanity, I REALLLY appreciate tat frustrated souls jst show their real self through their way of speech n we get 2 know wat tat star)SHYTE is worth ….

    It’s a proven fact that civilizations (just like the stock markets) has it’s ups and downs. When einstein, newton, edison and such great people were there it was “civilization growth” for the west. Now that we have pigs and asses like these, in the name of stars and bfucks (what shitty name is that) that western world is in “civilization recession”. It’s the cycle of nature and is normal. God save the other innocent people who goes down with them.

22. 

    This is a shameful act and the RJ should be punished for this. But people ..plz..reaction of hatred shouldnt be hatred..where will it end?..
    We are from country where Gandhi and Buddha was born…So plz..dont abuse all Americans for this..which i see some of u have done…I believe most of people I met in the US are not as that RJ..they are peace loving and tolerant as we are..
    What difference will be there between that stupid RJ and you if u say the same things…let the sole effort from all of us be- to make sure that justice is done..and no more such acts repeated in future from either sides…its really uncivilized..

23. 

    Immediate resignation of RJ is the first reaction any sane person would have. The call is not only abusive, it is full of hatred and discrimination. The same person should be sued by the employer and the amount should go to the lady on the phone.

24. 

    This is a post to all the “chutiya” (you know what that means) indians making racist comments against blacks on this boards. You guys really need to grow up as much as these idiots RJs. You are doing the exact same thing. You are creating a stereotype of blacks in your mind and then associating the whole race with that negative image.
    Condemn the RJ due as much as you want, condemn Clear Channel as well, but why the fuck are you making insulting comments against the whole black race?
    Also instead of venting your impotent anger on an anonymous web forum, why don’t you fucking do something about it? Contact FCC, Clear Channel, the advertizers, make your point to people that matter. Indulging in abuse on this forum will not achieve anything except giving rise to disgust for indians, because many of the people reading these comments WILL associate the comments by few assholes like you with ALL the Indians.

25. 

    I request fellow Indians to maintain their coolness, recall the civilization, which gave non-violence to world. I know most indians especially girls are not used to this language at all. feel sorry for the call center girl, to have to go through all this.

    Lets hope FCC and america would not want their children to learn from ingorant and mal-civil RJs.

    America should nclude basic economics lessons in schools – and some advaance economics lessons for college kids to learn about american economic oppression on the third world.

    -j

26. 

    I just wish, those RJs never get a job for their entire life. I’ve been now in America for about 1 and 1/2 years, and have found that Americans really are good and loving people and have great respect for them.

    But those 2 must be punished.

27. 

    btw, kudos to the girl who handled the call. Considering that she is probably less than 20 years old, I think she handled herself well.

28. 

    Machar……., bahen……….., Bhad…,

29. 

    This is smoething what Americans think ….. quiet a broad view of their filthy mentality..
    They are actually jealous of something they will never be able to do …they r as helpless as a rat againt cat ….n making noise like that will never prove a point but YES will show there standard of thinking ….this thinking may be just of those two RJ’s and people like that will bring bad names to legends who brought fame to a good country

30. 

    hi..This morans needs to be stopped by someone. They think they r being funny and better than anyone else, well SUCH MY D**K to all the “Philadelphia’s Power 99 radio” and their employees…..And best thing is that you dont have to travel all the way to INDIA for that, I am right here for ya….ha ha…..

31. 

    That shows how low class nigga they are…

32. 

    Please sign the petition and send to as many people as you can. We must see these two guys punished.

33. 

    who cares. star is funny. howard stern is funny. this is america and i believe freedom of speech is one of our inalienable rights. back the fuck up off them. if you don’t want to hear it turn off the radio. i presonally have missed star on ny radio. yes he is disgusting, he is a racist, self-hating bastard, like the court fool but needed in the very sterilized discourse that is promoted. he doesn’t say anything that people don’t think and when it is out there it can be addressed as opposed to festering under a shiny happy facade that is our current acceptable discouse.

34. 

    We do care Ny Chik. Get lost with your current acceptable discouse(?). And we are going to show how he is going to get punished.

35. 

    This is freaking unbelivable. I am gonna fax them and so i encourage you to ALL.

36. 

    Thanks, Ed, for posting this. Also, thanks to so many Americans who have protested this kind of ranting from these racist pigs. I suppose having suffered racial abuse themselves, they are now “transferring” the same on to someone else.

    I do not blame Americans in general for the gross behavior of these two. By and large, American people are generous, kind, and caring. So, this is not a reflection on American culture or people. Having said that, here is what I have to say to these two idiots:

    You stupid, fu$king, rat-bitten coons and jungle bunnies, take your garbage mouth and go back to Africa. All you do in America is spread garbage and whine about discrimination. Look at others who came after you and have prospered in America (Italians, Irish, Chinese, Koreans, Indians…). You niggers have squandered every opportunity that America offers to get out of your rat hole ghettos. You fu$king idiots don’t even have an elementary idea of geography to know that there is no place called “East India”. You desrve to be where you are in the American society i.e., in the gutter.

37. 

    Is there a way that the lady who recieved the call may sue this radio jockey?

38. 

    Hi everybody,

    I am really embarassed after listening to the clip they posted on the website. People are really abusing the radio and saying that hatred sells. You have to understand that people with no talent will do shows like that and cover up acts like this. I wish some authorities are notified and necessary action will be taken. Mr star : whoever he is needs to apologize publicly.
    This is a disgrace to the whole DJ community.

    Sincerely
    Sam

39. 

    Folks, please. I don’t want to have to moderate this discussion, but I’m going to have to ask you to stop the hateful comments (to ANYONE) if you want to participate here. That’s EXACTLY the thing that Star wants. Weigh in with thought and action, rather than the same brand of savagery that Star has espoused.

    The Philly station has already weighed in. But Star & Buc Wild will be leaving there for New York.

    If you want to register your complaint, I’d suggest contacting WWPR, where Star & Buc Wild will begin broadcasting their show as of Jan. 17.

    WWPR Power 105.1 FM
    1120 6th Ave
    New York, NY 10036
    212-704-1051 (business line)

40. 

    >>That’s EXACTLY the thing that Star wants.

    oh pliss. these monkeys are not that intelligent. the can shout, beat up ppl, steal, but nothing more complicated than that. oh yeah, drugs and booz and pimping are also their chosen careers. Philly is full of them. where they settle, they drive real estate prices down, bring neighbourhoods down, and bring the aesthetics of the area down. have you seen them? not good for anything other than stuff like this – shock radios, rap music, junk like that – do not expect anything other than that from these ppl.

41. 

    yeah, as Ed says, one radio host who says junk like this is not representative of an entire community, but the it would be better if the community condemns his actions too – and to tellthem that it;s not funny. This star bucwild are incapable of any job other than talking trash, so their jobs will never be outsourced. I wonder how they would feel when the next time they are subject to some racism where they live.

42. 

    Hey ppl,

    Is there a way to make the 2 publicly (on radio) apologize to the whole indian community? if yes, we gotta resort to that method. wat say?

43. 

    Guys this discussion is getting all together on a different track. We should Not balme all Americans for the shameful act of those 2 senseless RJs. As an Indian I request all other Indians to show our true culture by showing respect for all human beings.
    We should punish those who doesn’t respect human being & create problems between humans , races & nations by using such abusive langauge.
    Fellow Indians dont forget our culture & show patience & share respect.

44. 

    but we need an apology indian girl

45. 

    I really appreciate the lady (Steena or Tina) who took the call and maintained her composure. That kind of decency comes by profession and by the cultural upbringing.. which the caller lacked completely. The greatness of Indians is that, though the west came and robbed us of our glory, we still SHINED. I hope FCC wakes up and does something tangible in this case.

    MERA BHARATH MAHAAN

46. 

    I agree that we should not be blaming everybody but the least that Mr. Richard Lewis could have done was apologise & fire the RJ’s. This is in real bad taste.

47. 

    Its funny two niggers are now using racism to express frustration over jobs which niggers were never capable of getting even before outsourcing. Look at how bad their unemployement rate is. Don’t even getting me started on education.. 30 % of them drop out years before they reach high school.. 90 % of of the rest don’t even make it to high school…….and they want jobs “just like that” A white guy complaining for jobs makes more sense than a senseless migger….

48. 

    No religion preaches ‘hate’. Mother Nature will take action.

49. 

    Being an Indian , Im sorry that many other indians have vented their anger at all Americans and whites. The behavious on the talk show was despicable and it is true that this kind of racism is highly prevalent in America today.Sad 🙁

    Those who want to object to the talk show should warn the sponsoring companies about boycotting their products.

50. 

    All:

    Since we have opined enough on the topic and more importantly done the exact same thing we are ostensibly trying to criticize, here are a few of the things that I did to make sure the mainstream media is made aware of this incident:

    1. emailed CNN, MSNBC and FOXNEWS:) ( even Mr. O’Rielly)

    2. Wrote to the FCC management (contact info below). Please write to them and let them know we are outraged:

    federal communications commission
    enforcement bureau
    investigations & hearing division
    445 12th street, sw
    washington dc, 20554
    fax 866.418.0232

    chairman michael k. powell: michael.powell@fcc.gov
    commissioner kathleen q. abernathy: kathleen.abernathy@fcc.gov
    commissioner michael j. copps: michael.copps@fcc.gov
    commissioner kevin j. martin: kjmweb@fcc.gov
    commissioner jonathan s. adelstein: jonathan.adelstein@fcc.gov

    3. Wrote to my local radio station ( NJ 101.5).

    4. Writing to the NY Times and my local newspapers.

    We’ll see how these jokers can get away unscathed.

    Join in guys! Please help because we all know its wrong. No point in beating a dead horse. Lets try and get involved.

    Peace and Love

51. 

    Let us all put our contact information here so we can all make complaints to the right people. Remember, power in numbers!

    This is the pre-written “apology” he is sending:

    Please know I am also personally concerned about the language (typed) that you

    All of us at WUSL-FM do not condone the use of offensive language in any form,
    on or off-air. This situation has been discussed with the people in question
    and I am confident nothing of this nature will happen again. I have also
    reprimanded the staff and reminded them that posting such material on our

    I want to ensure some of the Indians who have come to these pages that, just as Star & Buc Wild are not reflective of the DJ community at large, Americans in general are NOT reflective of an anti-Indian bias. Certainly not where I live. If you’re referring to racial profiling, I should point out that in any nation, there’s an important distinction between a nation’s government and a nation’s people.

    And thanks, neurojava, for the leads. However, keep in mind the following will probably produce results:

    1. Star & Buc will be broadcasting on WWPR in New York. This is where their show will be. Writing into the Philly station is fine, but if your goal is to get these guys off the air, send your missives that way.

    2. Advertisers. If someone in New York listens to Star & Buc, make a list of who advertises during the show. This is the most palpable way to cripple the station. In some cases, an advertiser buys a bloc and the advertising director programs it among X number of times a day during several peak listening hours. So the advertiser may not be completely aware that his business is being sold during the Star & Buc Wild Show. If he is, however, he may not wish to associate himself with a personality who preaches hate.

    3. Neurojava is right on the money about sending letters to newspapers and journals. In fact, Devalina Guha-Roy’s efforts were what got this into the Philly Inquirer.

    She is only apologizing for the fact that they posted the clip on the internet. And I quote:

    “Essentially [we’re] apologizing for things on our Web site that were racially inflammatory and insensitive, saying, ‘We took it off our Web site and it won’t happen again.’ “

55. 

    We should all sign this petition to protest against this:
    http://www.petitiononline.com/rams1317/petition.html

56. 

    I think Indian Government should step up and do something diplomatically, its just not aired in US (where the law permits these kind of race related hatred) but its aired globally thru the net, so its not just US. If it happens in India, those kind of idiots would be out of job and also facing criminal charges.

57. 

    My fellow Indians,
    Lets not bad mouth ourselves over this RJ Guy, if we do the same as he did, then what is the difference between us and the likes of RJ ?
    Let us all think about it for a moment. Do something that will make us all free, anything you can do towards a stronger India and a stronger world, lets just keep focussing on that.

    OF ALL THE MESSAGES POSTED HERE, YOU ARE GONNA FIND MINE MOST SENSIBLE AND AT TIMES A BIT PROVOCATIVE TOO
    ____________________________________________________________________________________________________

    Wait a Minute! He, on the first place, doesn’t sound like a Black. He could be, but I don�t understand the mystery behind him repeating �My Six Year Old American White Girl� over and over again!

    But Certainly, I bet the male RJ isn�t black, for that matter, nor is the female RJ. Black or White, doesn�t matter, the fact still remains that this was an extremely uncivilized & Ruthless behaviour, which only the Americans are capable of doing.

    Secondly, by doing this the Radio Station, the company that makes the Beads and the RJs have become much more popular than what they could. The easiest way to achieve popularity is through a controversy. Hence the beneficiaries are:

    1) The Radio Channel
    2) The Makers of the product (BEADS)
    3) The RJs too (If not this channel, there are many Racists American companies that would offer them better jobs for doing something they have always longed to do

    I do empathize the Customer support person, Teena, but I don’t think she handled the situation as good as some of you think she did.

    Why?

    1) Well, from the voice, even a retard could�ve easily made out that it was a male caller, why did she have to call him �M�am� and that too, TWICE!
    2) She could not understand what he was saying and at the same time did not want to make him repeat, probably because she knew from the voice that he was pissed and hence handled the call in a procedural way just like she would�ve done with 100 other callers whom she would�ve spoken to.

    While Teena�s employers sympathize her position and give her a week�s off, they should also not forget to give her a friendly warning about the way she handled the call.

    But given the fact that the call, by itself was a Prank, we can safely ignore that part.

    In the US, you�ll find the whites and Blacks abusing each other and the Indians and other ethnic groups in a more cruel way compared to which, this is nothing. It�s trivial and I think u guys should ignore this and get back to work.

    If you continue to Sign the petitions that some of you have created and send in your grievances to the FCC, trust me, nothing will happen. The loads of letters you ppl send will supplement to the GBs and GBs of such letters those guys get everyday and yours will be rated the least priority task.

    So stop talking big things and get back to work. I found a few �concerned� Indians warning their fellow citizens not to generalize and post abusive comments against Americans in order to distinguish ourselves from them Racists. BULLSHIT!
    I�d encourage ppl to continue bashing if you like, cos that�s the only way you can quench ur thirst to retaliate. MAHATMA GANDHI was an A$$HOLE, FCUK MAHATMA GANDHI IN HIS BUTT WITH A HOT IRON ROD AND THEIR FOLLOWERS AND AHIMSA SHIT. Your letters to FCC OR ANY OTHER ORGANIZATION OR EVEN GEORGE BUSH FOR THAT MATTER ARE A MERE WASTE OF TIME.

    VIOLENCE SHOULD AND CAN BE PUT OUT ONLY BY VIOLENCE, JUST LIKE SNAKE’S VENOM IS USED AS AN ANTIDOTE FOR SNAKE BITE.

    I LOVE MY COUNTRY AND WILL LOVE AND PROTECT MY COUNTRY THE WAY SUBASH CHANDRA BOSE DID, NOT LIKE MAHATMA GANDHI – SON OF A DICK SUCKING HOOKER BITCH.

    THE PRAGMATIST

60. 

    the discussion is taking a whole new direction!.. Gandhi bashing now? Pragmatist watch what u say.

61. 

    Hi “What The”

    I certainly wouldn’t want this discussion to be directed towards that direction, if u choose not to, then u certainly wouldn’t argue or at least if u have read about Gandhi and his Hippocratic Docmas.

    Well, India was once a Nation that was known not only for its wealth but also for its incessant bravery, GANDHI was one MORON who influenced the people of India and made them inherit a slavery attitude and u can find it in the genes of 99% of Indians. I’m one of the very few Indians who uses what I’ve been bestowed upon (REASONING) to redefine “Tolerence” and “Patience and the extent to which these two virtues could be exercised in any given situation.

    If an American were to be in Teena’s position, he or even SHE would’ve made the RJ puke his balls out. THAT’S ATTITUDE PAL.

    Cheers
    THE PRAGMATIST

62. 

    “THE PRAGMATIST” is a crazy MOFO shiv sena dick sucker for sure. How dare he denegrades MAHATHMA GANDHI? If Mahatma was not there, he would still be cleaning up the poo coming from british white asses. “THE PRAGMATIST ” is in the class of these bloody RJs. Just fuelling hate against people. These bloody RJs are trying to follow the path of another shock jock, howard stern. Anyone can become famous if they call Bush’s mom a whore. Im sure these guys are too pussy for that. So, they call up a poor indian girl and try to harrass her.
    Yeah, now I remember. Once I saw Star’s mom in
    Bronx and fucked the hell out of her and then I came on her mouth. man, that was awesome…

63. 

    Such is the nature of a free forum. Please understand that when we write things like what the Pragmatist wrote we conveniently forget some basic facts.

    1. From what I have gathered, the owner is not Indian. Yet he was effected enough to blog this topic here. When we generalize and use epithets like “Racist American” etc., ultimately what we are doing is lowering the force of our argument. So please refrain from using such language.

    2. Ultimately, while some of us might think that this is a reflection of a greater social problem – fact is that people such as the RJ are in a vast minority. Most people are decent regular folks who would be outraged if they were to read about this incident. So please dont get race/nationality into this. I would accept the argument that this would not have happened to a call center person in say Ireland but lets face it – the incident itself is an exception than a rule.

    3. Ultimately, if rather than raving ourselves out of breath we want to achieve something so that the people responsible are held accountable – espousing “violence against violence” isnt going to solve anything. We need to get out – talk to your community, write to the FCC ( yes, it will work if we get large number of complaints in ), write to newspapers, talk to the sponsors like Ed mentioned. But please dont go ploselytzying about non-issues.

    Sorry, didnt mean to pontificate myself. But the fact is I am as outraged as everyone else. And I think all our time can be put to better use by letting the mainstream know about what happened and what we think should be done rather than talking about Gandhi or Bose.

64. 

    JUST ONE MORE THING BEFORE I LEAVE, FOR GOOD.

    I THINK THE COMPANY ON BEHALF OF WHICH TEENA WAS TAKING THE CALL SHOULD INSIST ON AN APPROPRIATE ACTION TOWARDS THE RJ.

    ALTHOUGH TINA IS NOT A DIRECT EMPLOYEE OF THE COMPANY, CONSIDERING THE FACT THAT TINA WORKS FOR THE COMAPANY’S SERVICE PROVIDER AND THAT SHE’S THE FACE OF THE COMPANY ITSELF, I THINK THE COMPANY IN QUESTION (THE BEADS COMPANY OR WHATEVER IT IS, I HATE TO REMEMBER THE NAMES OF SUCH COMPANIES, WHY SHOULD I GIVE THEM UNNECESSARY PUBLICITY?) HAS A MORAL RESPONSIBILITY TOWARDS HER.

    ANY TAKERS FOR MY VIEW?

    I agree Pragmatist. Think its a good idea. Now how we find out what company it was?

66. 

    Pragmatist,

    Whatever you have posted is useless, rubbish and baseless. Get lost with your hypothesis.

    If you follow SC Bose, why the hell you don’t go and attack with your army on Power FM 99. Will you do that?, If you can’t do not post nasty things in this OK.

    If you can’t sign the petition get lost please. Nobody is keeping a knife under your head to sign.

    You just do not know the value of Mahatma Gandhi.
    And you are in-eligible to talk about him.

    I know you would reply for this with some junk.
    Am not going to answer for ur any further insensible postings.

67. 

    Ed – Syndicate your blog man! Make loads of money. Buy out Power 99. Fire the Haters.And recruit Micheal Moore to host the talk show instead.
    🙂

    Just trying to make the place a little lighthearted:)

    LOL, hey SHIVASENA HATER, good too know that u hate shivasena too (READ BTL) That’s a similarity between the both of us. For that matter, I’m not in to patronize any political party here.

    Well, what REALLY differentiates u & I is the fact that I maintain discipline on an online forum and express myself better effectively than u do, for all I see is a bunch of abuses that you’ve learnt alongside ur education (I wonder if u really are, are u a highschool drop out or something?) between something absolutely junk. Remember I have mentioned about the 99% Indians in my earlier post, you are one of those pathetic losers and I really pity you.

    GROW UP MAN. I wouldn’t reply to any of ur messages henceforth, this was just an attempt from my side to make you realize what u really are. READ WHAT IS CONSIDERED CONTROVERSIAL ABOUT GANDHI SOME TIME. BTW, IT’s NOT BECAUSE GANDHI THAT WE’RE FREE TODAY, HAVING SAID THIS, YOU’RE PROVING YOUR IMMATURITY AND IGNORANCE TO ME AND THE (REAL) EDUCATED LOT THAT HAND AROUND HERE READING YOUR POST.

    ED, YOU DID A GOOD JOB. I’M SORRY IF I’M RESPONSIBLE IN ANYWAY FOR MAKING THIS THREAD STINK, I PROMISE, I WILL NEVER RETURN.

    CHEERS

    Hey Guys,
    Call 215.483.8900 and ask to speak with manager. Let’s get the two idiots fired. You’d think they would know better than to treat a human in an undignified way. Let’s kick their ass. Also call the PA attorney general and the FCC. Do your part if you dont’ wanna remain lazy monkey brain eating suckers….

    Let’s kick their ass.

    This was taken up on Rediff.com also and sadly this is an attitude that my call center friends tell me is very common with Americans. The point here is though that this was caught on tape on Radio.. and esp for these radio heads who have nothing but hate on their mind, they probably don’t know that the American bead manufacturing company has outsourced their calls to India, and so if he has a problem then he should have it with that company
    So Star prolly hates his own country’s governance for transfering jobs out to another country.

    But this attitude of a few Americans is well known all over the world – that they have a problem with the rest of the world
    – no wonder they are being attacked for the fault of a few dumbheads
    – and if this continues to be the case, then people like Star and whoever the other Wild one is, will pay for it eventually.

    The sensible thing here is for the Radio to ban such stupid characters from spreading their hate message and keep it to themselves and bring out some positive ways to deal with it. But unfortunately if they have been signed for bringing in money, they will not be banned…

    ClearChannel has been the target of a lot of malpractices I believe ‘cos I hear it’s name pop up every now and then and they also have tried to answer these allegations on their website.

    Hope there is enough sensitivity in this country for what they are being accused of and how they need to be more embracing in their views…

    Great work though Ed, to bring this out here. I got here from Rediff.com that posted your link.
    Hope people do read more about this and voice their opinion with the appropriate governing authorities.

71. 

    Yeah, Im a high school drop out. So what? I am reasonable enough not to hate someone who has experienced more than I have, who is knowledgable than I am. How crazy would you be if you are thrown out of train just because you were not white? That was what Gandhi experienced in SA. That was his wakeup call. So, this incident is a wakeup call for Teena and maybe Indians too. Teena, if you are reading this, just feel my(and the support of all of Indians) moral support towards your cause. We feel very much with you.
    What I meant by wakeup call, is that you guys dont need to feel ashamed against some crazy dude abusing you over phone. You are more intelligent than he is. Believe me, Indians are more evolved cranially than the blacks. They have done slavery for ages and the evolution of their brain was stunted for years. As you can see from the behaviour of Star, that it still is… Let them take some time to catch up with us. And teena, next time, HANG UP BEFORE HE BULLSHITS YOU, OK??

    And pragmatist, FYI, I am a Senior Tech Analyst earning big bucks in Boston. Just to correct your prejudice about people.

72. 

    Well..I see a similar hatred (if not more) in here as was displayed by RJs..and plz..y are we using abusive language in here..? moreover, plz ..try and keep this forum to the current topic..rather than expressing ones view abt Gandhi and SC Bose..its really juvenile…what are we discussing here..are we trying to do something abt it or just talk abt it…and plz..Do not make ur view abt all americans based on few such incidents..it doesnt reflect the attitude of whole comunity….most americans are polite and friendly..

    I complained to (News & Public
    Affairs Director: Loraine Ballard Morrill) of Power 99FM regarding the attrocious behavior of the 2 RJ’s. Below is my mail first and then Loraine’s answer to that

    Dear Loraine

    I heard the recoreded version of a power 99fm morning show where a call was made to India for a “white girls quick beads”. The DJ not only used filthy language against the sales person which was outrageously racist act, the more disturbing is that everyone in the station was enjoying it.
    Something like this is intolerable in free country like America. If
    they have any issue with outsourcing of jobs I am sure this is not the right way of saying that. This is one of the meanest way of using a public medium for which we all pay taxes.
    I hope this mail is not going to a deaf ear and proper measure will be taken so that this does not happen again.
    Thanks and Regards

    Anamika

    Loraine’s Answer:
    Dear Anamika,

    Your words have not fallen on deaf ears. We hear you. The language
    you refer
    to was offensive and not acceptable in any way. Management has
    disciplined the
    parties involved. What made it worse was posting it on the website.
    The person
    responsible has been disciplined. We have taken measured and this will
    not
    happen again – Loraine

74. 

    Anamika
    Good thing that you got a reply. I would like to see the host apologize – I would believe the Public Affairs Director but would be best to hear or read an apology from the host himself…

75. 

    Bring down the “clear channel” and http://www.starandbucwild.com website

76. 

    Ha…you can make a BIG thing out of it or make a mockery of the stupid Radio Jockey who needs money, does not have comical intelligence, so he uses some poor soul in a call center to take out his learnings.
    Someone pointed Black vs Indians vs etc. – PLEASE don’t get over excited and give such comments. All over the world there are ediots and we should not talk about cranial maturity as there are no reports and even if there is we will find some other race to be superior than some other, so what’s the point.
    Let’s despise this ediot and support the petition to get him out. Cheap-star should be his new name.

77. 

    anyone heard about this rumor that it was an India and US army operation that caused the set of waves/tsunami – this was reported on a PR radio station.
    Not sure if this was related to the Indonesia Tsunami or the one in UAE that was noticed a few hours back – http://in.rediff.com/news/2005/jan/11uae.htm

78. 

    The biggest irony I see, racism and ignorance aside, is that these DJs don’t realize they are alienating a huge chunk of their OWN audience with these comments. Many second-generation Indian Americans and other Asian Americans are among the most significant consumers of hip-hop and R&B music, and African American culture in general. Indians, Asians and Latino youth often find an affinity to African-American culture because they feel marginalized by the mainstream American culture which is decidedly more Eurocentric. They should be aware of this ESPECIALLY in the Tri-State area where their numbers are large. And yet sadly enough when I lived in the Northeast I experienced probably more overt racism as an Indian-American from blacks than from whites.

    hey u desi-hackers. the site is still up. Join forces and bring it down.

    Dear Pragmatist,
    Although I agree on some of your points, but the way you put them was inappropriate. Have you given it a thought as to why are we so dependant on foreign money? When I said that we should work towards a stronger India, I meant to say that we must, each and everyone of us Indians should harness our potential to the maximum. That way we would not have to be dependant on any one. I am a big fan of Subhash Chandra Bose, but I like to strike when the Iron is Hot. The Iron is far from being Hot right now. Let us just keep working together in a United way and make our country proud.

    Jai Hind.

82. 

    just visit their site http://www.starandbucwild.com. they have an exclusive interview by Star. read thru it and u will know wat a dumbass star really is. The man rambles on and on abt hate and how important that is. No use abusing tis ass. Chances are high that he wont even understand what we r talking abt. He wont be able to comprehend anythng if the statement doesnt contain a f-word or b**ch.

    He is a guy on the fast track to nowhere! I can’t believe what still happens today in America after all we’ve tried to do to be ‘a melting pot’! What was this guy thinking? One good thing is that the people listening to him are people we DON’T want to associate with anyways. I’m embarrassed to be American just for this very reason. Just remember this guy is only one and there are many other Americans who are completely opposite of him! Don’t think all Americans are alike, its easy to do but its not the right way! Keep the faith- good ones are here! -Diana Rohini
    PS This is just another reason, I’m moving to India in the next few years! URGH!

    To Indians : Be cool and stick to the topic of the two RJ’s

    To the RJ’s : U people are just so sick and need to be terminated of any payrolls! i can’t beleive how characterless idiots like you guys get the chance to be on air

    To the companies who employ them : i hope u go out of business ASAP!

    That’s the irony, literacy teaches ignorance.
    Advancement is most likely a fallacy, an illusion.

    and, America is the perfect example.

    Something I noticed on the Power 99 website.Among all the crap they have on their web page, they have posted a 2 line apology – the kind of thing one would write if one were forced by the scruff of their neck.

    Just an FYI. I am going to flood their email boxes. Please join in and help. Such condescending behaviour isnt acceptable.
