Radio's Top 10 Turkey Moments of 2005

#10: This Year's "Mommy Look at Me!" Award

Opie & Anthony from XM Satellite Radio sent show crony Nathaniel on another "Assault on the Media" mission.

In New York, while CBS Channel 2 reporter Arthur Chi'en was reporting live, Nathaniel snuck up behind him with a large Opie & Anthony sign and shouted "XM Satellite Radio".

This obviously interfered with the reporter's concentration and his report.

When Chi'en thought he was off the air he turned around and yelled, "What the f*ck is your problem, man?!!" Unfortunately, Chi'en was actually still live and it went out over the air.

This one's a toss up: Does it go to Opie & Anthony for demonstrating a severe lack of professional respect for a fellow broadcaster's job OR does it go to Chi'en for not having a tough enough skin to ignore crap like this?
