Hate speech on local radio

I'd think the majority of sg_ljers are not the target audiences for the Love 97.2FM DJ Dongfang Billy aka Billy Wang's radio show. But I see a need to call him out after hearing some uninformed and damaging things he said over in his show.

I was just sitting in the living room, reading the papers when I heard him start talking about "homosexuality is a choice" and if you "make this choice and not one that is for marriage and family, you must be prepared for the consequences". AND, he was saying how they're releasing a book on the "touching stories" of ex-gays. Plus, he states that "homosexuality is a direct result of lack of family morality teaching".

Recommended by jasperthedummy: "I guess he still had some balls to say these on national radio. Seriously he should be fired. So what if he's popular among aunties if he blabber things without proof.

I did not hear his comments on the radio. But based on what is written, what is serious wrong with facing the consequences of ones action? Thats part and pacel of life anyway. He may be just relating from his own experiences or views. I believe there are call-in during his shows and people with different opinions can raise. Either that or a common platform were both side can present their views.

I find the blog extremely biased and unbalanced. In which, especially the calling for a "witch-hunt". I do hope the editorial team can maintain the fine quality of publication released.

Cheers!
