Two radio hosts in upstate New York were fired after making racist comments during a live broadcast. 'You can't say that. What are you doing?' the show's producer responded.
Ray added,"And by the way, there are people in the black community who would say they are acting N-word-ly."Beck said,"It's a double standard." To which Ray responded,"And I don't appreciate the double standard."
"They have no place anywhere in society, but especially in the city of Frederick Douglass," Yudelson said. In a statement Wednesday, Robert Morgan, an iHeartMedia regional president, said,"We made the decision to terminate Kimberly and Beck yesterday as soon as we learned of their comments and informed them early this morning.
