LA Radio Hosts Suspended for Calling Whitney Houston A “Crack Hoe.”

After the death of superstar Whitney Houston, amongst the mourning and tears of fans and long time friends, came some harsh criticism of her past from naysayers. And some of them are now being made to reap the repercussions of their words. Los Angeles radio hosts of KFI AM suspended two of its employees John Kobylt and Ken Chiampou of the “John and Ken Show,” for some of their negative comments of the “I Will Always Love You,” singer. In this audio, the pair go on a rant bashing Houston’s character saying,
“….she’s a crack head for 20 years and we heard about how obnoxious she was at these parties and she’s doing hand stands, babbling like an idiot and running around….it’s bag lady time. She’s been doing this for 20 years, blew through her money, ruined her voice….she was for practical purposes broke. So how much of a pain in the ass do you think she was? Can you imagine you’re Clive Davis and she hasn’t had her head screwed on right for 20 years, and at some point your just sick of it all and so is everybody else…..Here comes the crack hoe again, what’s she gonna do….after a while, everybody’s exhausted and then you find out she’s dead it’s like really….took this long?”

The station released a statement saying Kobylt and Chiampou were suspended for, “making insensitive and inappropriate comments about the late Whitney Houston….Management does not condone, support or tolerate comments of this kind.” Kobylt also released a statement acknowledging that he and Chiampou, “made a mistake, and [they] accept the station’s decision.” He also admitted that they”used language that was inappropriate,” and that they “sincerely apologize” to their listeners and Houston’s family. The two are also known for making snarky comments against taxes and illegal immigration. The National Hispanic Media Coalition have been on the pair’s tail for a while as they believe the show encourages listeners to limit support for illegal immigrants, their rights and financial aid for illegal immigrant college students. The president and CEO of the group Alex Nogales released a statement also saying, “A temporary suspension is not enough. How many times do John and Ken have to spew their hate, apologize and then do it again after taking off a long weekend? KFI must permanently remove John and Ken from the air. Los Angeles deserves better.” Their show is set to return to air on February 27. Do any of you watch the show? Or from the audio clip do you agree with Nogales’s opinion?

I feel that they should be fired because of their behavior and comments, I feel that they are racist
You cruel, insensative idiots. Why do people apologize for things they really aren’t sorry for? What you two said exposes the type of people you really are so don’t apologize for it. A suspension is barely a slap on the wrist…she isn’t even in her grave yet for Christ’s sake. Pity you when it’s your turn to face the wrath of God.
They should be fired. Similarly, Star and Buckwild made insensitive comments about Aaliyah and were fired.
I think that they should be fired because Whiteny was a mother, daughter, sister, aunt and ect. They need to really think about what they said because they have a mother, sister, aunt and etc. to. What if someone called they mother a crack hoe after her death they will be offended about it to.
She’s a CRACK WHORE! I said it. If you don’t like it then read another post or move to North Korea. Here it’s called free speech whether you like it or not.
Only an idiot will say some like that!!!!!!!!!
Who is the idiot? You who has the opinion, or the one for free speech? He like you has an opinion just like you dont hate because you dont like the statment. Just stop listening.
Why is everyone complaining. They simply stated what she her self openly admitted to being. Why is that wrong? If your a druggie, whore, or an alcoholic, why is it uncouth to say it. There are millions of abusers in the U.S. that are moms, daughters, sons, and fathers. Let free speech ring! You the individual has the power to stop listening. Use it.
You is an idiot too if you think that it’s okay to call your mother a crack whore. Oop so in other words she is one too, so that why it is called freedom of speech because you is dealing with the same thing. It is also called mind your own business and stay out of other so you make use of that.
