Dubai DJ Fired for Impersonating God in Skit

By , About.com Guide   October 23, 2008

Follow me on:

I think it's safe to assume that the United Arab Emirates has very little sense of humor when it comes to radio bits featuring God in them.

The Associated Press reports: "A Dubai radio station fired a South African drive-time DJ for mocking religion and impersonating God on the air..."

The DJ, Revin John, was fired because his on-air bit was "highly offensive" to Muslims and Christians, according to a statement released by the Arabian Radio Network.
