I seem to recall a similar 'statement' with a couple of goons in the
LA market doing the exact same thing. They said 'we were only kidding...
This is entertainment. Lighten up!'.
After much of the same response (by cyclists AND motorists (sic) alike),
the station was called to task by the Ca Highway Patrol and local
cycling advocacy groups. In some instances, sponsors were bicycle
friendly and promptly yanked their money.
Long story short, the DJs were fired (this was not the first time
they had pulled such a stunt) and the GM was demoted. Hell, for all
I know, it could be the same two dumbos pulling this crap in Cleveland.
