In this lawsuit happy society I wonder if anyone can do a radio stunt even harmless without paying a bad price. Sad state of affairs.In a surprising and unfortunate turn of events, longtime KYLD (Wild 94.9)/San Francisco PD "Jazzy" Jim Archer and night jock Joe Breezy were terminated late Wednesday afternoon (Aug. 6) over an April Fools bit that offered up as a prize "free breasts" from a certain "Dr. Sanders." Turns out the breasts in question were actually chicken breasts from KFC -- get it? Everyone laughed ... except the winner, who was apparently laboring under the illusion she was getting some other kind of breasts.
R&R has learned that two weeks after accepting her chicken -- along with front-row Kanye West tickets, $500 in Victoria Secret certificates and backstage passes to the station's annual Wild Jam concert, among other door prizes -- the woman's lawyer filed a lawsuit against the station ... and now, the ultimate price has been paid.
