Hate Mail Mondays...

We got a feedback letter sent to our website from a guy who I don't think really likes The Big J Show, just a hunch. We talked about the letter on the air and I have been getting a lot of feedback about it. Here is the letter from the infamous "Ticked Off Tom". I had to edited some of it for language and privacy concerns.

"I just wanted to write in to ask when you are going to bring some class back to your station. I used to listen to this station a lot and then you put that rude, self centered, idiot Big J on the radio and completely ruined the stations good reputation. I flip through the channels in the mornings and I bet 9 out of 10 times I will turn to your station in the morning I will hear at least one completely rude or racial, or socially wrong statement out of that guys mouth. If something is not done very soon and I get a response to this email I will be posting my own web site petitioning everyone to stop listening to your morning show. Anyone that thinks they are better than blacks, or homeless people, or anyone else that comes from a different background is completely insensitive and uneducated. Radio stations are supposed to be partial to everyone not be complete racist immoral pigs. Big J has the most #%$*ed up views on everything that if anyone should not be awarded the right to breath oxygen in this world it would be people like him. Feel free to forward my information onto that idiot and he can call me on the show to help show off how pathetic and uneducated he is. HE IS NOT FUNNY, and he is ruining your station. Stop being cheap and go back to the Playhouse out of Portland or some other show that has some form of intelligent, impartial views so you can stop alienating your listeners. The Playhouse show was rude at times but were not complete racist and immoral pigs. I am sure a site with clips of all the thousands of immoral things that idiot says, along with contact information to all your advertising clients would really help them realize what type of show they are advertising on and would probably think about going elsewhere to avoid being linked to such a pig. If I don't hear back in 2 weeks I will be posting my website and will gladly forward the link on to you and every other radio station and web blog relating to billings that I can find. Big J needs to go. If you need other information to back up his stupid behavior go look into his comments on Billings Gazette web site. I am sure they could give you a print out of all his account postings. He shares his same immoral, self centered views on there as well.

Thank you,

Tom

There you have it. Wow!


I don't really get how somebody can be that passionate and angry about a radio show. Why would you not just change the station? It makes no sense to me. I love that he thinks his Super Awesome Quest to rid Billings of Big J is going to make some sort of difference. My opinions are no secret, they are live on the air every weekday morning from 6-10 a.m. and A LOT of people hear them. Most of our advertisers already know what goes on during my show because they listen! Some of them call in, some of them are friends of mine, and some purchase advertising on my show because whether they like it or not, my show and in turn their message reaches a lot of people and that is the point of advertising.

I really hope for Tom's sake that something exciting happens in his life so he can have something else to be this passionate about.

But either way...at least we know he is listening! :)

Does this douche bag know how much of a local celebrity you are?? I listen to your show because not only is it funny, but I agree with a lot of your "racist" (whatever) and rude comments. HAHAHA. So when this guy petitions to have you thrown off the air I'll be right there along with thousands of other listeners who think that this guy is an economy sized bag of douche cheering you on!!! This guy is a joke.

wooooooooooooooowwwwwww

big J u rock my fkkn world! YOU...keyword here....are the ONLY reason i listen to Hot 101.9. i moved to Billings in October 2006 and thought u were fkkn hilarious. i agree w/everything u say on the air, which is what attracted me to listening to your show each & every morning. "TOM" needs to pull his head out of his ass & grow up. He is just a hater & people like that have nothing better to do!

BigJ, I listen to your show almost every day from when I get up until I go to school. Now I'm not a big fan of some of the songs you play (I'm more into underground rap myself) but I tune into to hear your honest opinions on life. If this guy doesn't like it, then he can tune to any other of the radio stations out there with mostly "canned" personnel, where basically on you hear is weird games and people don't get to really talk. BigJ is the only radio personnel that tells how he feels, and its not racist, its honest, which is what America needs to be less racist. By hiding what you want to say because your worried what everyone is going to think, then your contributing to racism. BigJ treats everyone as an equal, whether that person be White, Black, Mexican, ect. if someone does something stupid, he will call them an idiot and why should he be censored for his opinion. His opinion is based not on the race but on the stupid crime they committed and the nature of how they did it.
People like this need to just turn to Paul Harvey and hear the "unbiased" truth whatever that may be.
Thanks for reading,

I lived in Billings for most of my childhood until I was 20. I have now moved to San Diego and even HERE no one can top you, Big J. I miss your opinions and how you really don't give a rat's a$$ if people like them or not. You have a really level headed view on most topics and I have called in a few times to let you know that I agree. This Tom guy really has nothing better to do and, like you said, why doesn't he just change the station? No one is forcing him to listen to the station. He also needs to remember what freedom of speech means.

Keep it up Big J. I wish I could hear you out here in San Diego!!!

WOW, I lived in Billings for a short time.. Less than a year.. During that time your show was the highlight of my day and I loved waking up to it! I listen to it now on the internet almost every morning I can.. Over here your show is on between 5 and 9, so sometimes I miss it. I love hearing your opinions and I love that you allow your listeners to call in and also share their opinion.. If your show goes off the air I would have no reason to listen to Hot 101.9.. Please keep things the way they are.. I really enjoy your show!

Is this guy serious? It sounds like he doesn't have much of a life if he has to go off about a radio station. I think you ROCK! Don't change a thing..that guy should just listen to another radio station and get over himself..pathetic...

I agree with Kat... BIG BAG OF DOUCHE! Hey Tom: GET A LIFE and go listen to The River or something. Better yet, get your own radio show and then you can say/do whatever you want. DOUCHE BAG!

That guy is a real piece of work all he has to do is change the station or turn it off. He has to be board with his life and he is nothing but a drama douche bag.
