I am curious as to how many people actually listened to this audio bite. I listened, and I think this has been all blown out of proportion. I did not hear anything offensive at all on there. Whoever said it could have made the papers obviously did NOT listen. Nothing on there in my opinion could have made the newspaper on a slow day. Jim
