Salt Lake City.

Quote :
"Rabbi radio talk show canceled

Michael Rigert DAILY HERALD

The host of a talk radio program says a Utah station's abrupt decision to cancel his show after he invited Hurricane Katrina evacuees to his Salt Lake City speaking engagement smacks of bigotry.

Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, a national talk show host, author and columnist, said KUTR-AM 820 yanked his show after Friday's broadcast, during which he invited displaced New Orleans
residents staying at Camp Williams -- most of whom are black -- to his Sept. 14 Salt Lake City speaking engagement. The daily three-hour afternoon program on KUTR, a station geared toward Utah women, had aired for the past five months from the ordained Jewish rabbi's New Jersey home.

Rod Arquette, news and programming vice president of the Salt Lake Radio Group -- part of Bonneville International, denied Boteach's allegations of prejudice. He said the rabbi's outreach to hurricane survivors during Friday's show and invitation to them to his speaking event wasn't related to the program's cancellation."


I'm sure his firing was unrelated to the invitation.

"On the last day, Jesus will say to those on His right hand, "Come, enter the Kingdom. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was sick and you visited me." Then Jesus will turn to those on His left hand and say, "Depart from me because I was hungry and you did not feed me, I was thirsty and you did not give me to drink, I was sick and you did not visit me." These will ask Him, "When did we see You hungry, or thirsty or sick and did not come to Your help?" And Jesus will answer them, "Whatever you neglected to do unto one of these least of these, you neglected to do unto Me!""
