I just read about Crash Clark getting canned at Susquehanna, parent company of 99x and Q100. Crash is the traffic reporter for both radio stations and has been in trouble numerous times with his bosses for stunts that he’s pulled, but this stunt was too much for them.
On Dec. 1st, Crash was canned for an act that occured on Sat. Nov. 26th at Jack Rabbit Lounge. He was giving away 311 concert tickets to listeners and a woman came up to him and told him that she’d “do anything” to get some tickets to the show. So Crash told her to do something in a “Monica Lewinsky sorta way” to another random 99x listener, and she did, and he gave her the tickets.
A website has started up to try to save crash’s job and it’s already getting some press attention. The website is www.savecrash.org if you want to check it out. It’s already received 60,000 hits in two days!
I’m not sure whether he’ll get his job back, but I think it wasn’t wrong for him to do what he did. She chose to do what she did herself and the act wasn’t performed on Crash, so he received no personal gain from it……but obviously more conservative minds have prevailed at Susquehanna.
Till Next Time
