Top 10 Radio Turkey Moments of 2006
From Billboardradiomonitor.com: "Local host John London, his producer Dennis Cruz and sports reporter Chris Townsend were suspended last Friday (4/7) and subsequently fired over weekend, according to the San Jose Mercury News, for spending two hours on April 5 complaining about Jillette’s Free FM syndicated show where he labeled Mother Teresa a fraud. At the beginning of his show the following day, London remarked, '$5,000 to the person that kills Penn Jillette. If he suffers, I’ll make it $7,000.'"
