This is a forward message from a friend of a friend.
HERE IS THE LINK to HEAR the argument from Miss INFO(asian) and Miss JONES(host of the radio station). PLEASE LISTEN, I just can't BELIEVE THIS:

The 2 DJs who recorded the skit, Miss Jones and Todd Lynn repeatedly played the song after callers complained about it's insensitivity and blatant racism. When another DJ on the show (Miss Info - who is Asian and comments regularly on VH1s "Best Week Ever") opposed the song, she was verbally abused on the air by both Miss Jones and Todd Lynn. Todd Lynn actually said "I'm gonna start shooting Asians". Since that broadcast, neither Miss Jones nor her staff have apologized on their own behalf (the station issued a half assed statement of apology. GO TO

You're gonna start shooting Asians huh? We can shoot too! But why resort to guns when you can hit them where it really hurts - The station's pockets. Instead of a bullet, shoot off your anger at the FCC and demand they be reprimanded and FINED for every broadcast of that skit. If the FCC gets enough complaints, it could fine them in excess of $100,000.00 (the maximum fine for indecency times the number of times they broadcasted the "Tsunami Song"). Remember the Janet Jackson "wardrobe malfunction"? The FCC acted on thousands of indecency complaints and CBS was fined half a million dollars. Howard Stern has paid a very heavy price to the FCC for his indecencies as well based on numerous complaints. A hundred thousand dollar fine would REALLY hurt a single radio station.
If you are angry about this issue, instead of talking about it and complaining amongst ourselves, vent to the FCC. Let our anger be felt as a whole and unified community. Media personalities think they can disrespect us as a race without impunity and so far, they're right. This kind of thing will continue unless we let everyone know we will not lay down and take it. We cannot allow anyone to disrespect the hundreds of thousands of people who have died in the Tsunami tragedy and we cannot allow them to disrespect us as Asians.
Here are the lyrics again:
There was a time, when the sun was shining bright
So I went down to the beach to catch me a tan
Then the next thing I knew, a wave 20 feet high
Came and washed your whole country away
And all at once, you can hear the screaming chinks
And no one was saved from the wave
There were Africans drowning, little Chinamen swept away
You can hear God laughing, 'Swim you *****es swim.'
[Chorus] So now you're screwed, it's the tsunami,
You better run and kiss your ass away, go find your mommy
I just saw her float by, a tree went through her head
And now your children will be sold to child slavery.
