UPDATE: COURT ACQUITS FL DISC JOCKEY IN CRUELTY CASE:
On Thursday (02/28), a Tampa, Fla., jury acquitted Todd Clem (a.k.a.
"Bubba the Love Sponge") of animal cruelty charges stemming from an
on-air radio stunt last February in which he castrated and then
slaughtered a live, wild pig on air. Although the WXTB-Tampa disc jockey
was acquitted, the public outcry over the killing was successful in
compelling Clear Channel (the radio conglomerate that runs WXTB-Tampa)
to adopt a zero-tolerance policy regarding animal abuse, after the
company reportedly lost millions of dollars in advertising revenue.
THANKS FOR MAKING A DIFFERENCE FOR ANIMALS--TODAY!

Actually he DID get away with the cruelty...the news release says he was ACQUITTED, which means he was not punished. THANKS to the radio sponsors who pulled their advertising dollars. This whole incident is plain stupid and sick and SHAME on those jurors!!!!!:mad: :mad:
