Appalled at xenophobic rant
My husband ... and I are long-time listeners and members of WMUB. Therefore, we were particularly appalled to hear the xenophobic rant against your Chinese intern this morning (5/7). While you may need to respond to or consider all sides of an issue, there was no reason to air this caller's views, and certainly not in their entirety.
While I realize that listeners' comments often do not reflect views of the station, by airing this type of racist diatribe you give it legitimacy and credence.
Please apologize to your intern on our behalf and on the behalf of the rest of the listening audience who in no way agree with the views aired this morning. He is doing a great job and we appreciate his willingness to contribute to our country and community, despite what others may say.
