Ultra-Right Wing Radio Host Jeff Katz was fired from Charlotte, NC radio station WBT-1110 AM this week. WBT Vice President and General Manager Rick Jackson and Program Director Bill White spent 3 hours on the air during the 3 -6 PM old Jeff Katz time slot Tuesday, December 2, 2008 taking calls from listeners. I would have to say it was admirable to see a couple of managers willing to stand up for a decision by taking on criticism in such a public format. It was pretty funny because Bill White was playing producer and running the board and fumbled around and made some mistakes, which made it fun to listen too. Some callers were not happy with the decision that Jeff was fired and said they would no longer listen to the station. But I would have to say they were in the minority. Most people that called were happy that Jeff was being replaced.
Bottom line is not about pressure from about any group. Its not about the hate that Jeff spewed about Muslims, African Americans, Immigrants, or the Poor. WBT is a big business. The Jeff Katz Show is number 5 in the stations target demographic. Jeff wasn’t what WBT was looking for, and wasn’t bringing in the right numbers because if he did, he would still be on the air. Personally, I don’t care why he is gone, I am just glad he is. Hate has no place in Charlotte.

Charlotte, NC Voters Bitch Slap Jeff Katz and WBT
It would seem that hate speech, racism and homophobia backfired on the Republican Party this election cycle. Jeff Katz and WBT Hate Radio have spent months in a campaign against Barack Obama. Monday thru Friday from 9:00am-6:00pm there has been a constant stream of hatred and ignorant filth piled upon the airwaves from their 50,000 watt radio station. It would seem that karma has bitten them in the posterior. NONE of the candidates they supported were elected. So who are WBT and Jeff Katz trying to sell their hate to and who are the idiots that are buying advertising from these Nimrods ? Here is how it went down in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County , North Carolina.
President/Vice President
Obama/Biden(D) 61.83% 252,652 votes
Mccain/Palin(R) 37.44% 152,957 votes

Governor of North Carolina
Bev Perdue(D) 49.04% 198,631 votes
Pat McCrory(R) 48.94% 198,246 votes The 8 time mayor of Charlotte that had a show on WBT
Mike Munger(L) 2.02% 8,184 votes
Clearly WBT does not represent the people of Charlotte as you can see. We deserve better and its an embarrassment to think that when visitors come to the Queen City they might actually hear the filth that Jeff Katz and WBT puts out there and leave thinking that we are some backwater trapped in the 1960’s south. Its a pitiful way for a company to make money and they should be ashamed. Jeff Katz has been fired from other jobs for spreading hate. Why should Charlotte have to suffer his hate ?

API – African Press International Obama FOX Tape Fraud Exposed
API or African Press International has made false claims that they have a tape of Michelle Obama making some kind of incriminating statements about Barack Obama. From the day they said they had this tape they have been star of the conspiracy theory blogosphere. Problem is, the tape doesn’t exist and they have made up a different excuse on almost a daily basis on why they will release the tape the next day. Sad enough, there are people dumb enough to believe them.
Story Follows By: Jim Dent
Michelle Obama is alleged to have placed this damaging phone call to a news agency called API, “African Press International.” Okay, let’s check them out.
Well, that’s odd. A self-described “international” media organization – using a WordPress blog site?
That’s odd. They’re based in Norway. No African, other European, or African bureaus. Their site promises that at some unspecified future date they “will have will have five branch offices spread as follows: East, Central, West, Southern Africa and one in the United Kingdom.”
Their home page features a hideously amateurish series of photos of “African” looking people, with the caption “Our News Team”. No-one is identified. None of the click-through ID links work. Readers are invited to register to become “Corresspondents” (sic).
No editorial board is named. Only one actual name is cited: their “”CHIEF EDITOR KORIR”, who ” IS A MEMBER OF INVESTIGATIVE REPORTERS AND EDITORS INTERNATIONAL.”
A review of their archives reviews a curious, patched together assortment of press clippings and releases on various topics. However, their top and ongoing American news story is anti-Obama coverage that essentially reproduces, uncritically,most of the major smears promulgated over the last year.
The “African Press International” is owned by “The Rainbow Foundation”, to which they provide a link – which turns out to be a website created last week, on another WordPress blog spot. The “Foundation” lists a number of objectives that oddly have nothing to do with Obama or US politics. They also list a number of “projects” being run by the Rainbow foundation: however, it turns out there AREN’T any actual project. What there is a list of countries where they say they’re GOING to run projects at some unspecified future date – but NO projects.
Now, there IS another “Rainbow Foundation” – NOT the one that “owns” African Press International, but an authentic charity. And THEIR website has an urgent note up warning folks of a fraudulent “Rainbow Foundation”, soliciting funds and making claims using their name.
So we have allegations being made by “news agency” on a blogsite, owned by a “Foundation” that claims to have been in operation since 1995, but whose website was only set up last week – a foundation WITHOUT ANY PROJECTS except a website that smears Obama, and apparently appropriating the name of a real children’s charity. In short, an obvious fraud run by lying, anti-Obama scumbags.
Gosh. That’s a pretty compelling source. It’s certainly easy to see why a First-Lady-In-Waiting would break campaign strategy to call and harass a fraudulent blogsite masquerading as a news agency run by a fake foundation.

Its fairly simple for people that aren’t sitting in a basement with tin foil on their heads to protect them from the government mind control. API is a SCAM and has no tape of Michelle Obama to release. And you can bank on that Missy lol

Jeff Katz and WBT Lie about Obama’s Citizenship
Barack Obama
WBT Charlotte, NC Hate Radio Host Jeff Katz has been perpetuating another lie. He has been questioning the citizenship of Senator and Presidential candidate Barack Obama. As in the post from his website below dated September 25, 2008 he has been perpetuating the lie that Barack Obama was born in Africa. This is simply a racist ploy and is gutter journalism at best. It took about a 30 second search on google to find out this was a total lie. Barack Obama was born in Hawaii and submitted the documentation to the nay sayers over 6 months ago. I have attached the links for people interested in the truth. Jeff katz and WBT have proved once again they are out to appeal to white supremacists and hate mongers. WBT is a station that supports hatred and racism. There is no place for a station like this on the public airwaves. Having and FCC license is a privilege not a right.
LINK TO BARACK OBAMA’S BIRTH CERTIFICATE
Below is an example of one of the racist post from the Official WBT website:
Jeff Katz
Subject: Obama actually a Kenyan citizen?
Howdy Jeff,
I just read an article posted by worldnetdaily.com that says that Pennsylvania DEMOCRAT Philip J. Berg has “sued Sen. Barack Obama demanding he prove his American citizenship–” and claims to have had a recorded telephone conversation with Obama’s grandmother in Kenya who says she was present at his (Obama’s) birth in Kenya. The article also explains the consequences if that is the case. Please see copied and pasted article below.
If this guy’s information is legitimate, than Obama doesn’t qualify to be a Senator, let alone the President of the United States of Ameria!
Also if this is true, the information must be promulgated to government authorities as well as to ALL voters.
Thank you for your work on radio and for looking at this specific situation

WBT Talk Radio and Jeff Katz Hate Speech
WBT hired a bigot and a hate monger. WBT Radio is a 50,000 watt radio station in Charlotte, NC. They are the most popular news and talk radio station in Charlotte. This is pretty sad and says volumes about Charlotte, NC. because WBT features one of the most racist and hate filled radio hosts in the south, a sad person by the name of Jeff Katz. WBT has always been a white-only redneck format representing the heart and soul of the Charlotte’s good ole boy network. But when Jeff Katz walked through the door WBT took the hate to a new level. You see Jeff Katz has been fired from other stations for being a hate monger and yet he was still hired by the management of WBT. I have asked the guy that manages WBT, Rick Jackson ” why they would hire someone like Jeff Katz on a supposed “world class city” like Jeff Katz ? ” and he had no answers. Maybe Jeff didn’t tell him, maybe WBT didn’t care.
Hardly a day goes by that Jeff Katz doesn’t tell or perpetuate a lie or attack a minority group of people living in America. So since I have a fairly popular blog I thought it was about time to let the world know what is going on in my fair city of Charlotte, North Carolina and see what can be done.
This week Jeff has been stating that Barack Obama was not born in the United States and was born in Africa. This is an obvious racist statement and is totally untrue. Here is a link to Barack Obama’s birth certifcate which was easily accessible with a 1 minute google search and an internet connection. But Jeff Katz is a racist and a hate monger and his aim is not to tell the truth.
LINK TO BARACK OBAMA’S BIRTH CERTIFICATE
Also this week Jeff Katz was ranting that all social programs were communistic and wrong and received a call from an 80 year old man telling Jeff that at all programs were not bad. The man said ” What about Social Security and Medicare ? “. Jeff said ” Stop playing games with me ! ” in a very ugly fashion and said “I’m not here to be your friend “. The older gentlemen said ” Do you think that old people should just be left to die with nothing ? ” Jeff said ” there should be no Social Security or Medicare and it was just meant to help people a little” and hung up on the man and made fun of him. That sums up Jeff Katz. A moral and ethical zero. Just a mouth spewing hate.
Here are some of Jeff quotes:
KTSE-AM in Sacramento, California has fired disc jockey Jeff Katz for urging listeners to use their cars to hit illegal immigrants trying to cross into the U.S. from Mexico. During his morning talk show, Katz said drivers should be awarded sombrero bumper stickers that could be redeemed for a meal at Taco Bell. The National Hispanic Media Coalition, based in Los Angeles, took credit for the firing.
“….Jeff Katz responded to the Pope’s call for Catholics to attend Sunday Mass more regularly by ridiculing the Pope and Catholicism. They declared that no man who “wears a dress and a funny hat” can tell them what to do. They called the Mass “mumbo jumbo”; argued that parents were wasting their children’s time by taking them to church; and sarcastically suggested that brownies be used as Communion hosts…”
• Supporters of the rights of undocumented workers are “supporting a subhuman life.”
• “torture, kill, pull their fingernails out and crack the skulls” of any one thought to be a terrorist.
• Suggested that Mark Leno cares more about supporting child molestors than children because his whole constituency is gay
