Local radio hosts say Helen Thomas "should be killed"

[Bluzmann57]

I am not sure if any of you are familiar with the long time radio team of Dwyer and Michaels here in the Quad Cities, but earlier today, I was in my car and there was a "highlight" from their show where they were discussing Helen Thomas' statement about the Israelis and Palestinians. They said that since she is old, she may have lost her filter, meaning that she is getting senile I guess. But then one of them blurted out, "She should just be killed". Now first of all, this is a wildly inappropriate statement for any one to make about any individual and secondly, they are supposed to be a "wacky morning team" and not political commentators. So screw them. They are neither funny or correct. If anyone is interested in contacting them to express disgust, go to www.2dorks.com or simply email them at [e-mail].

1. my recollection is that these guys are a couple of RW idiots

I never listened to them on purpose, but did hear them do a couple of hatchet remarks on I think it was Kerry.
I also recall that to hear one funny thing you would need to listen for a week or two.
Thanks for the heads up. Will register a protest.

2. Have you filed a complaint with the FCC?

I think that's what you should do.

Also, I'm no legal expert, but didn't the moron who said that just run afoul of 18 USC § 875?

Whoever transmits in interstate or foreign commerce any communication containing any threat to kidnap any person or any threat to injure the person of another, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.
