Bill Handel & KFI Issue Apology Over Comments

It seems like after a whole month the pressure got to much to bear, thanks to your support with the petition, email to the station, and complaints with the FCC. A video apology has been issued and it is expected that a live, on-air apology will also be made, along with other concessions down the road.

I want to personally thank everyone who took time out of their life to fight against this sort of hatred. It is because of you that we were victorious.

And this is the on-air apology broadcast on June 12, 2009.

Bill Handel of KFI 640 didn't even apologize about the racist and insensitive comments made by himself and his co-host Lara Hermanson .... he said he should have addressed the issue .... wow .... I guess he just woke up .... he needs to be fired ... and the advertisers should boycott the radio ... that will teach them a lesson ... expect to hear more on this topic ...

Exactly! What about his apology?
He pretends it has nothing to do with him. Who thinks he is?
FREAK OF NATURE!!! He must pronounce same speech as his co host did.
