I am sure there are at least some of you out there who are upset about the firing of O & A. I myself admit that I am catholic and I am not too pleased with what they have done but I don't think they should be fired. So I am asking if any of you like them complain to the station. I like Ron & Fez but come on that station is nothing without them.

The phone number for the production manager is 212-489-1263.
The email address is feedback@wnew.com.

Like I said I don't condone what they have done I just don't think it was cool that there were fired over it.

I'm glad they got fired... they got played out long ago.

They got fired in Boston for an April Fools hoax where they pretended the mayor was killed in a prop plane crash in the Everglades. They had half the city going nuts thinking it was true. That only offended one person... the mayor.

The NY situation is completely different... it offended a whole religion. WNEW would have lost their license if they hadn't canned them. That's not fair to people like Eddie Trunk who had nothing to do with the bad prank. The reason cited was that they broadcast the audio of the incident on the air, not that they incited it. That is the loophole that covers the station.

I'm Catholic too, and I have a good sense of humor (I find little in bad taste), but this disgusted me. I'm glad the two idiots stand to lose millions in syndication deals. I could see them getting rehired after Boston, but it will be a tough sell now.

I have never heard of them up to now. So I don't care if they got fired or not. With that kind of entertainment however, you got to know whats going to fly and what will put you in deep doo. They I guess could not figure it out.

I'd like to know what these guys expected would happen to them. Like they'd show up to work the next day like nothing happened and keep going. I'm Catholic too but even if I wasn't, church is not the time or place to be having sex. So what, exactly, did everyone think was going to happen?? In my opinion, this is way worse than the two guys in Dallas who faked Britney's death, and they got fired too.

I'm glad Phoenix DJs keep their shit local. We haven't had a "controversial" DJ get fired since the 7pm-12 guy got fired for reading his FCC fine letters on the air (and was back to work at another station weeks later-and is still there).

I think the show sucks, but there are far worse things they could have done. No sweat off of my nose though, as I do not find them entertaining, but rather sophomoric and contrived.
