The protester in the Nazi shirt and the bobo thing are only making SiriusXM more confident in their decision.

False flag operations from Stern.

Thermite paint

Holographic Bobo.

The Fugitive was an inside job

Maloonigan was a patsy.

HAARP machines!

The 'smart' fans showed how they felt by speaking with their wallet and cancelling SXM. This has definitely had an impact however I never believed it would bring back Ant. It was just a way to say 'fuck you too.'

And there's no way to avoid a couple retards standing outside of the building but my guess is the SXM higher ups don't even know they're out there. I'm sure they'll be the butt of many jokes when the show comes back in some capacity.

I've been listening for a long time and this not the first time I've seen them/Anthony get fired. I know they love what they do and would especially love to do it on their own terms. This may be their opportunity. We shall see.

Him wearing the LFTC "nazi" shirt doesn't help, but it's probably more of a big deal that the logo is from Live From The Compound...

I mean if someone wants to point out racism by Ant it's probably a bigger deal that he used that logo than the fact that some idiot wore it on a shirt.

Well, it's Bobo, so what do you expect? From his Wiki. "Bobo is, by his own estimation, 25% retarded. This figure may be inaccurate, however, as he also believes the average American makes $500 a year. Adjusting for Bobo math, this would make him 1600% retarded, a more likely estimate. "

Not a single O&A fan is surprised.

I hated the idea of a protest that's this unorganized. I knew this would happen

All were missing now is impromptu dances.

And Homeless Mustard

Did you really expect anything else from the people who post pictures of Denny sucking himself off on the Sirius FB?

[deleted]

The ones with an inner adult are at work. Oh and also spread across the United States and Canada

I'm close by but as soon as I saw a 'protest' was announced I started laughing because I knew it was going to be a handful of actual retarded people.

with molotov cocktails?

The problem with any protest is that it only draws the people that have nothing better to do, there's a reason Occupy was such a failure, no one thinks protesting matters.

I don't understand the purpose of it anyway, do fans really want Ant back on that shitty platform that has never supported the show anyway? I'm quite thrilled it ended this way, a little bit of controversy to start self-broadcasting never hurt anyone.

It's not like we can all take a Monday off to spread Tinkle Lord pics in the city, sorry.

I have a job, not fat tits or mental issues, and therefore am exempt from protesting anything.

I have a job, not fat tits

You know guys with man tits can have jobs too, right?

Yes, but I can't take off and have someone else do my job.

I thought his lazy, sweaty breasts were a symptom of his larger predicament, that's all.

Can someone please put this on something other than Telly?? The fuck

More proof of the incompetence of this whole thing.

Or not...As someone who has mentioned being an OandA fan to friends and family I'd prefer this video to not get popular. Obviously there are racy bits from the show, but I don't want to get lumped in with these dopes.

They all already hate you.

This is the sad truth of the O&A show: many of their dedicated listeners are idiots and bigots, because they encourage those kinds of people. I guess you get the fans you deserve.

This is probably the same subset of OnA fans that thought the politics/guns/race talk was brave and groundbreaking.

The ones who think he got fired for quoting crime statistics.

Or the ones that claim he's a hero for defending free speech.

Or the ones who somehow think anything about this situation is related to the 1st amendment.

or the ones who think Anthony's obsession with ghetto black culture isn't just a symptom of his closeted desire to suck a big black dick.

It was groundbreaking. No one else is saying this kind of shit. His take on those issues are one of a kind. Especially as far as a comedy show. Most opinion shows that try to keep it funny have very liberal leanings.

So, in other words, "No one else employs seemingly overt racists as on-air talent!"

I would fucking love a conservative version of the Daily Show that mocks the left.

Very difficult to do that and be funny/good.

[deleted]

Every time I've seen it attempted, it seemed like a cynical 'getting back at the left for John Stewart' and didn't have any wit. Just the same empty crowd pandering shit you see at rallies.

I'd like to see it too. I'm starting to believe there's something in people's backgrounds that make good comedians generally liberal. Just look at what an unfunny turd Dennis Miller turned into after 9/11.

Are there any good conservative comedians who do political stuff and don't just come off like cuntbag Ann Coulter?

The closest thing I have right now is Stewart occasionally attacking Obama from kinda libertarian vectors about spying.

[deleted]

considering anything funny from a conservative would automatically be deemed racist/sexist

I think this is a cop out.

And I haven't heard enough of Dipaolo's stuff to say, but Ant sure as hell isn't funny when he's ranting about politics.

[deleted]

It's a cop out that conservative comedians have no topics to discuss.

If he wasn't so correct it would be funny though, as it is it's just sad.

"I hate social programs and taxes!"

Cutting edge stuff there.

[deleted]

If I wanted to hear millionaires complain about taxes I'd get a job waiting tables at the country club. BTW, the 'right' will also force people to apologize about BS when it suits their narrative.

[deleted]

I think Fox News has tried a few times to do this.

[deleted]

Here's the one I remember getting the most heat in the lead up to its debut:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_1/2_Hour_News_Hour

[deleted]

Opie and Anthony: it's still real to these fans, damnit!

I have cringed so much this morning. Sam looked so uncomfortable in the video of him, and he's a guy who spends his weekends at independent wrestling shows.

I feel bad for Sam, because you get the feeling that the bosses probably sent him out to deal with it.

He looks depressed.

He really does. His whole face has fallen, he looks like when Sideshow bob got sad on the Simpsons.

He needs a rake handle to the face.

"Meeeraaagah."

which video is Sam in I haven't seen it?

http://telly.com/1MPETFT

Get this shit off telly

Do i need to sign up to watch the videos? It just wont play and i have never heard of 'telly' in my life.

lmao Stalker Patti the whole gang's there. I was literally a few blocks away this morning thank God I didn't go and look like a fool in front of my hero Primetime

Can we not put this shit on the shit Telly?

Sam's fucking hair, man.... Bobo and Bozo.

he looks like beetlejuice.

The tragedy of it all is now that the show is gone all these fans are just out there with no guidance like society's cancer cells.

It's not like Anthony DIDNT come out with a Swastika tee shirt.

Remember when that Chic-fil-a thing happened with the CEO was giving all the money to those anti-homo organizations and all the homos were upset? I supported Chic-fil-a, just because I think people should be allowed to voice unpopular opinions without society losing its shit (yes, including not getting fired, before the "You don't understand the 1st Amendment" police show up).

About halfway through, I realized most people were supporting Chic-fil-a because they hated gay people. They weren't cultural libertarians like me, they just wanted to support the man who made the homos angry.

I'm starting to get the vibe that most of the people who support Ant are doing it just because they hate black people.

Well I don't want any blocks around my fried chicken!

I don't get that vibe at all.

It's a show we all find funny, we like non PC, unfiltered humor and we're protesting it's removal over a guy who said some stuff that wasn't the best he could have, but taken out of out of context, proportion, spun after being assaulted and fired for BS Mickey Mouse reasons.

If Patrice was alive and permanently banned from the show by siruis you'd see the same reaction.

Racism is most civilized and honest because it recognizes the innate differences that exist and should exist. People will always group together on perceived similarities. I challenge you to be honest about your association with others outside your skin pigment and belief system and I guarantee the answer will always be the same... incidental.

People who don't understand the concept of free speech: "Uhhh! It's totally OK to shut someone down by bullying as long as you're not the gubbermint! Uhhh!!"

I know it's not exactly a one-to-one comparison, but I wonder if these people would have made the same argument if a black person was fired for speaking out against segregation back in the day.

They have no cognitive dissonance unfortunately so there is zero chance.

Yup, it's over. We had our weekend, nobody cares, show's over.

get ready for the down votes from all the knuckle draggers you are just trying to help and say, for once, is think and act like a professional adults and not like pests. a swastika LFTC shirt and bobo doesnt help the cause and only allows the outsider world to point and say "see, this is what he inspires"

Same people are posting racist memes to Gawker. Surely this will help our cause!

unreal the level of stupidity of this base.

I truly think the show would have been twice as popular if they'd just purged these dolts from their fanbase. Tough to tell your friends about your favorite radio show when you're embarrassed to be lumped in with their fans.

"It's great! As a warning, one of them is kind of racist--well, it's kind of an on-air character and everyone bashes him for his opinions, so it's all very nuanced... They have great comedian guests...Who's that guy with the swastika shirt yelling "chimp attack", you ask? Nevermind him..."

yeah honestly, though ant definitely has funny moments, he's always been my least favorite part of the show. maybe this will get the actually racist fans to go away and listen to ant's podcast, and opie and jim can continue with a funny show without having to pause and make time for ant to say hateful/ignorant shit every other show.

I eventually stopped telling people that I listened to the show, just because of the looks I'd get. I'm an adult with a degree and a real career - there comes a point where being lumped into the same category as these idiot fans is just embarrassing, and something I'd rather avoid.

As I grew up, O&A became more and more a guilty pleasure and something I went out of my way to hide from other people.

I'm in the same boat. I don't try to talk to my friends about the show because I know the general public only knows O&A for their dumb sex pranks and for bullying homeless people. Now I guess they're also known for racism. So that's great.

Wasn't it just yesterday that everyone was waxin' fantastic about the pests uploading shit / dick pics to SXM's FB?

There is no cause you moron.

In fairness, I thought the cause was "let's make our favorite radio host even more unemployable"

I agree that was an inappropriate time to wear that shirt but we can't put the blame for that solely on that dude. I mean Anthony did sell those shirts...If he didn't want any connection to naziism he shouldn't have distributed a logo that looks like a swastika.

i blame the moron cause he should know better. you want to make impression you look like an adult and they will take you more serious. he looks like a boob and a fool and that is how this came off.

What is up with that shirt, it's not quite a swastika but it certainly resembles one. I'm assuming that's just something this guy had made and isn't endorsed by Ant?... I hope...

no, those are LFTC shirts. so it's ant's logo. great move there

This is why we can't have nice things.

Be fair, it's also given us some amazing Jocktobers. The baboons have their uses.

Every time I see photos of O&A "superfans" I want to stop listening to the show.

I want to stop eating.

You can tell they're retarded because they published these videos using this shitty website I've never heard of that's asking me to install shit to watch on my phone

Request desktop site

Its not worth the two button clicks to see a group of five retards standing on a sidewalk

Deep thought: The only people who have time to go to jury duty are the same people who'd go to an O&A protest on a Monday morning.

That's a scary thought.

Well that's the major positive thing that comes from it. I just know for 14 years I considered myself a fan of the show. My definition of fan may differ from yours, but it is what it is. The last ten of those years having people tell me this is what a real fan is. Like I was obligated to go out and do all that stupid shit. Go blow an air horn in a guy's ear to show how much you love the show. Boo Mike Birbiglia. Hate these people because we hate them. Not my style. Even this past week. "If you are a real fan you'll cancel" Fuck you. A. People I'm close to work at Sirius, and B. I still listen to Ron and Fez. The main thing this show ending that will be good is finally this Borg unit of a fucking fan base will have to find something else to do. No disrespect to any of you but I got sick of that mob mentality bullshit in 2005. Like I have to have people tell me what to do to be a fan of a radio show.

I thought I was the only one feeling like shit for not cancelling Sirius. I just go a unit a couple weeks ago, a gift from my dad. He's paying for he service and it's not even costing me a dime. Furthermore, I don't have the ability to play my phone through my car speakers, so there goes Pandora and the like. And I like their classic rock stations. I need something to listen to on those long drives.

Great post.

I'll put it this way, all of us as fans feel a loyalty to the show, and Ant through all of this. And I believe that there's no one size fits all way to deal with it. You can be just as supportive and vocal about how you feel and not ruin a perfectly good gift. Practicality gets lost in the heat of the moment. Do what works best for you.

It's not just you. O&A was the main reason I had Sirius, but now I'm a fan of the music channels and of course Ron and Fez. Plus I want to hear Opie and Jimmy next Monday.

If the O&A podcast becomes a reality, I'll gladly show my support monetarily.

The Philly Crew should be there. That's the kind of support we need right now. Philly Crew.

I'm pretty sure that bot got banned.

Booooo

at least the Chip bot is still going, right?

Tsss. No.

Philly Crew, comment?

like i said ant superfans are the worst ever, like no self awareness at all just wearing a swatstika trying to defend a guy.

It was obviously a goof. Superfans are the worst. And I mean you and everyone else in this thread who attempted to organize this and thought this was going to be a real protest.

How about superfans that make a hacky, unfunny song about a staff member while thinking they're part of the show? faggot

Do you really expect more from people who actually turn up to protest a radio station?

So, so glad I didn't join in with these fat creeps

[deleted]

Pretty much. I walked over, had trouble locating them as they had moved from where they said they were going to originally meet, finally saw them, looked for a few minutes then carried on my way.

I definitely would have.

There's no way I'd be caught dead standing around with those fat pack of losers.

[deleted]

For once, I hope Gawker doesn't pick up a story

OMG that would be so embarassing

Hopefully their PC worldview will stop them from mocking the mentally feeble.

Give it time.

God damn it, Bobo.

HAHAHAHAHAA a retard is their leader, what dummies. the whole thing makes me laugh

i love bobo's blank faced shuffling as he gets scolded for his language.

And these are the people that support Anthony and that he inspires with his racially charged tirades. It was a really smart move firing anthony because it is just a timebomb waiting to happen.

We look like assholes right now man!

What

Embarrassing fans \o/

Don't worry, guys. Bobo plans to release a video statement later this week.

On Telly let's hope.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUbshC_yc6M

I expect it to be something like this

Bobo really should be euthanized.

...30 years ago.

but who would be there to chase after Mr. Maloonigans?

You guys aren't impressed by this? I feel like a couple of chunky retards are exactly who should have the spotlight on them to speak for all of us.

These two faggots fellas are all that consisted of the protest? What a joke.

So now Bobo has to start a podcast too, roight?

I get what you're saying but I think it's unlikely SXM is going to reverse their decision at this point. Maybe if they suspended Anthony pending a discussion (along with the fallout from cancelled subscriptions, and structured, respectful, coherent complaints from fans of the show) whether they should fire him or keep him - maybe. But at his point, the decision to terminate his contract came from the very people that would actually entertain the idea of keeping him employed. Its over at this point. Opie just posted this BTW: https://twitter.com/OpieRadio/status/486206028061884416

I love how he plugs that stupid fucking basketball shot video of his.

What the fuck is Telly?

SO the protest consisted of Bobo and 2 other people. That's pretty funny.

I think the most embarassing part was they uploaded the videos to "telly"

Well 4chan was behind ant all weekend showing support. I guess they showed up.

I want to correct Bobo's bald spot with a pickaxe

cringing hard

Ant doesn't want to go back. Unless they came back to him and offered him a bunch more money to stay, he's ready for the next phase of his career.

The total obscurity phase.

He'll be ok.

Lmao wtf was Bobo doing in the second video

[deleted]

Gunner is a tool!

The vast majority of fans can't just leave their jobs and responsibilities to go to NY on a whim. This protests doesn't represent the fans in the least.

The only recourse we have as fans is to cancel our subscriptions and let our numbers count that way.

They just didn't get the memo.

[deleted]

Same thing.

[deleted]

A protest? Is that where go if you like tests or sumthin? Tsssss.

What type of people did you think listened to the show Mr. Sophisticated Tolerant Progressive?

[deleted]

Can you blame a fan for bringing a shirt Anthony sold to a protest for Anthony? If that's enough to make him look intolerant then maybe he is.

Yeah, let's be fair here: Ant should have made a logo that didn't remind people of Nazis.

What, do you think a decent protest would get them to change their minds?

Ain't gunna happen. Might as well go down as retarded as possible.

I mean really, what is the lesson you all got from the apology bits? That you should grovel and try to prove you and your people not offensive?

Their hearts are in the right place.

... in a box, on the ground, getting stomped on by Opie?

[deleted]

Well don't draw it so fast so we can read it better.

I've studied "Pests" since '98, this is just normal & in fact it's cute...

if you throw them change you can make them dance - just say'in

Down votes for every "just sayin'". Just sayin'...

the LFTC shirt's symbol is an L and an F intertwined...for Live From

Yes. It's also a swastika.

No, it isn't.

Fucking idiots...

It looks pretty damn close to a swastika.

It certainly is close but it isn't a swastika. We all know it is supposed to remind of us of one and it does but it isn't one.

Kinda like Bailey Jay almost looks like a chick but with one small difference.

That would be the letter E.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA this is the face of o&a fans. HA HA HA

Yes. Every single one of us looks like bobo and the manatee

I already knew. Just thought it was hilarious for it to be confirmed on video.

You're full of fudge.

Here's the same protest showing normal people.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Co_yWmPqlq8

Lol, you got me.

Exhibit 1 - How tolerant Ant is holds no water in any argument i've heard so far. and Ant ISN'T tolerant. Why try to pass it off as if he is? Would you like the fans to try to "pull a fast one" on management and trick them into thinking Ant is a saint and hire him back? Dirty pool, mister. Dirty pool.

Exhibit 2 - You are surprised that Bobo did some stupid shit? that surprised you? Really? Are you and Bobo missing the same chromosome?

Exhibit 3 - this one is a stretch to begin with, what the fuck are you trying to say? the guy didn't hold his sign high enough??

Downright embarrassing, yes absolutely. But you should be embarrassed by this post. Asshat

[deleted]

The total obscurity phase.

Well I don't want any blocks around my fried chicken!

People who don't understand the concept of free speech: "Uhhh! It's totally OK to shut someone down by bullying as long as you're not the gubbermint! Uhhh!!"

No, it isn't.

Fucking idiots...

I don't get that vibe at all.

I think Fox News has tried a few times to do this.
