Comedy skit turned sour

Two US RJ's (Radio Jockeys) who abused an Indian call centre agent in a comedy skit on outsourcing have been suspended by the radio station in response to a firestorm of protests from Indian community activists.The station, Philadelphia's Power 99 FM that broadcasts mainly hip-hop music, also apologised for their excess ( Source : " The Times of India"). Its clearly a case of wacky joke turned sour. The racial slur and abusive words used in the skit has angered the Indian community in the US.

Here is the detailed report on TOI & listen to the skit
