Thats not raw crime data...its per capita crime data. If it was raw crime data, no other city in the country could touch NY....it has twice as many people as any other city in the country. And yeah, per capita, Hartford or Bridgepuertorico might have a higher crime rate, but there are dozens of neighborhoods in NYC that are similar in size to either of those cities that would make them both of them seem like Greenwich.

people around here tend to listen more and mind their own bussiness, even tho you still find the occasional loud mouth
:edit:
not sure what that really has to do with anything ^^
and i'm not sayin that new york is any less dangerous or that everyone in new york is ignorant
i just dont like to see people throwing around like they're the king when they are just a nussance

Statement from WQHT-FM, HOT 97
New York City - Miss Jones and the HOT 97 Morning team have been indefinitely suspended for the airing of a song that made light of a catastrophic event, as well as comments made at the time the song was aired.
Earlier this week, Miss Jones said on the air "I apologize to all who have been offended by my poor decision to go along with playing that insulting (to say the least) Tsunami song. I should have known better and I didn't. So I'm sorry and hopefully we can move forward from this, or I can move forward from this being a better hostess, because I am better than that, and I know better than that -- and you deserve better radio than that."
While Miss Jones has apologized on the air, in the media and on the HOT 97 website, station management felt that stronger action was necessary to demonstrate the severity of the situation.
Emmis Radio and HOT 97 will not tolerate such derogatory and racially insensitive content. This incident in no way reflects the spirit of HOT 97. The station has a long-time and well-known reputation for community involvement and support.
Emmis Radio President Rick Cummings said, "What happened is morally and socially indefensible. All involved, myself included, are ashamed and deeply sorry. I know the members of the morning show are truly contrite. They know their actions here are inexcusable."
We would like to clarify that no company advertising on our station had any connection to the Tsunami Song and no company advertising on our station endorsed or sponsored the offensive material aired on the "Miss Jones in the Morning" show. We apologize for any misunderstanding that may have caused listeners to believe that anyone, other than the morning show staff, was responsible for the material that should not have been aired.
