Opinion Essay
On the radio there are many thoughts that are said and many thoughts are spoken. All over the media there is many things that are said that could offend other people’s feelings. They say things such as racial slurs and other things that are offensive and they say things about a lot of other touchy subjects such as religion. Recently there was another incident about a racial slur that was aired over the radio. A lot of people’s had an opinion over this thing.
My opinion over this thing was that I think that this guy deserved to be fired because of what he did. A lot of people were listening to the radio talk show that day and I believe that they were offended. Nobody wants to hear racial slurs on the radio especially since everyone can hear you. Plus it was coming from a guy who had already done this multiple times and had gotten away with it too. Do any of us really want to keep this guy on the radio so he can say it again and get away with it? I think not.
On the other hand this guy really helped out the company and got it most of its money so he should have at least got like a warning or something like that. He might have said something that shouldn’t have but that’s how the talk how got most of it’s money. But that is just how sometimes it is going to be some things just slip out without you noticing.
But that is just how comedy works sometimes and we can’t fix that.
In conclusion, I agree with both sides of the argument because they both have good arguments. But I am going to go with the side that says that he should be fired because he said racial slur. That is why I agree with one side more than the other. This is my opinion on this topic.
