Longtime KMJ Fresno host Ray Appleton criticized how the media was covering the Capitol Hill riots by saying on his show that “certain news editors should be hanged … maybe.”
The Fresno Bee was first to report the rant from the 70-year old Conservative talker, who’s been with KMJ for 34 years, later took to Facebook to clarify what he meant. The apology is no longer on Appleton’s Facebook page, however the paper had a screen grab of it, which you can see below.
After today’s statement from Cumulus, this RWNJ might not be saying much of anything, any longer.
When the temperature is already this hot, this host’s comments only serve to add to the tension and to encourage the violence committed. Sorry, but he should be fired. Words matter, as the President-elect has said repeatedly.
So…which liberals/leftists/Socialists should be fired?
Which liberal/leftist/Socialist ‘words matter’, in whatever negative or ‘hot’ way?
All the ones who say people they don’t like should be hanged or shot.
The public airwaves shouldn’t be used to advocate vigilante justice.
And numerous Democratic politicians have suggested that all Trump supporters be placed on a list and not hired for anything. Several TV “reporters” have suggested that no one who worked for this administration should be allowed to work again…anywhere. And those threats are more serious than a blowhard talking about “hanging” people (which will clearly never happen).
The rage comes from both sides, but both sides are not getting the same treatment from the media and from corporate America.
Self described … start after the comma in his second sentence thru end of the 3rd.
Appleton is just another Limbaugh wanna-bee. Except he’s in Fresno, so he’s not even relevant to 99% of the country. A legend in his own mind.
Who is ‘Roy Radio’, ask 99.9999% of Americans?

Yep.
