KFI’S JOHN AND KEN HATE ME, EAST LA AND GOAT

Miles ClementsTue. November 17
 

KFI’s notorious open-mawed radio commentators John and Ken spent 15 minutes yesterday attacking everything about the recently opened Gold Line extension, a light rail line that runs from Little Tokyo to East LA. In the process, the pair slammed the L.A.Times for sending four writers (including me) to the profile the excellent restaurants surrounding each of the extension’s stops. (That story, including my contributions at the Soto St. and Indiana St. stops can be found here.) Predictably, John and Ken sink to race-baiting depths, calling East LA a “disgusting illegal alien slum” and wondering why they’ve never seen goat at the “authentic Mexican restaurants” they supposedly frequent.

    I don't know whether to rush down there to KFI and blow them away or to just shake my head about corporate America which owns this radio station has no shame.

    I did listen. Miles has lost his sense of humor!
    I LOVE John and Ken!!! Race-baiting---never.
    What Miles fails to mention is what this 6 mile extension is
    costing the taxpayers??? And would you ever drive or take the
    rail down for a taste of goat? Ha Ha.
    Now,speaking as a vegetarian, where can I get authentic potato tacos or taquitas which are so abundent in Mexico? Yum.

    Speaking as somebody who has eaten that birria I say it's 100% worth walking there if we didn't have trains and cars. But thank god we do! And John Kobylt is as racist a breed of scum as racist scum comes.

    What a boring 15 minutes of radio, who has the time to listen to these guys complain. I read and enjoyed the LA Times article and think the Gold Line extension is a good idea. Also, when discussing costs and taxpayer expense, don't forget how much tax payer money was used to create our current freeway system.....

    John and Ken are absolutely out of control with their hate baiting antics. KFI and show sponsors should be put on notice.
