ACT NOW: Stop Racism on Bay Area Radio

WILD 94.9 HIRES PRODUCER OF RACIST ‘TSUNAMI SONG’:
'Screaming Chinks', 'Africans Drowning', 'Little Chinamen'

This Spring, Rick Delgado was fired from HOT 97 in New York for producing and airing an explicitly anti-Asian and racist song about tsunami victims. Now Clear Channel has hired Delgado to produce the morning show at local hip hop station Wild 94.9. He started work Monday July 11th.

Two years ago, when Michael Savage was fired from MSNBC for his virulently racist and anti-gay remarks, Clear Channel's 910am KNEW in the Bay Area picked him up.

TAKE ACTION:
Join with us in standing against hate in the Bay Area:
Don't let Clear Channel import racism from around the
country and push it on our community's airwaves!

Subject: NO to Hate Radio

I am a community member outraged that Clear Channel continues to promote racist shock jocks like Rick Delgado. He is the wrong choice for the Bay Area.

As a diverse urban community, we demand less hate radio and more media in the public interest. Emmis Communications did the right thing by firing Rick Delgado. I demand that Clear Channel do the same.

I know that Clear Channel’s broadcast license is up for renewal this Fall. If Clear Channel continues its pattern of corporate irresponsibility I’ll be joining thousands of others to demand the FCC revoke your license to abuse our public airwaves.

Sincerely,
