A Public Apology from 92.9 KICK-FM

On Wednesday, December 7, 2011 at 7:13am, comments were broadcast on 92.9 KICK-FM that were in direct conflict with our standards of conduct.

A program co-host delivered a monologue that negatively stereotyped all members of the Muslim community and the people of the entire Middle East geographic region.

The comment was presented live, without prior consent. 92.9 KICK-FM apologizes for this serious and regrettable infraction of our policies.

The volunteer responsible for making the comments has been removed from the on-air lineup on KICK-FM.

We would like to acknowledge Mr. John Hotchkiss who alerted the CRTC about this offensive content, who in turn passed his comments on to us.
