Radio jocks suspended for calling Whitney a 'crack ho'

2/17/2012

A pair of Los Angeles radio hosts have been suspended for calling Whitney Houston a "crack ho" during an afternoon broadcast. In audio posted at UrbanInformer.com, John Kobylt and Ken Chiampou -- whose KFI AM show is cleverly called "The John and Ken Show" -- describe Houston as being "cracked out for 20 years," call her a "crack ho" (twice!) and question why it "took so long" for her to die. "We used language that was inappropriate, and we sincerely apologize to our listeners and to the family of Ms. Houston," Kobylt said in a statement released by the station.
