The suspension of those staff members of the Hot 97 morning show that were lucky enough to keep their jobs was supposed to be over today. Many rap and hip-hop fans that were waiting for the shows return were disappointed this morning. Late yesterday afternoon a spokesman for Hot 97 announced that the show would not return until Friday.

Some others were not that upset and were happy that the show did not return today. Many critics said that the return of the show today on the Asian Lunar New Year was a poorly timed decision. Kai Yu the executive director of Asian Media Watch had organized a call-in protest for yesterday. On the Asian Media Watch website they provided the information to call Hot 97 and protest the return of Miss Jones and those involved in the incident. A spokesman for Hot 97 said that Miss Jones had asked for a couple of extra days to prepare for the show.

The last couple of days it has seemed if there wasn’t a DJ there during the morning show slot. I can’t help but wonder why Miss Info hasn’t been on the air if she was not affected by any of the actions taken against the show? There are also the rumors floating around, and I stress the word rumors that Miss Info is considering filing a lawsuit against the radio station.

Whatever may be it seems that the show will return with those that did not get fired. I am sure we will hear more about this story, more protests and actions by those angered by the situation.

It will be interesting to see what goes on when the show does return. Will there be a new personality or two? Will they ever touch this topic and what they went through if they are even allowed to? Will any of them take the time to apologize for what happened?
