He claimed a woman in Time Square attacked him simply for taking pictures, then Anthony Cumia from the Opie and Anthony Show went on Twitter and began a barrage of racist and violent tweets calling the woman, who happens to be black, all sort of names including “whore”, “bitch” and “slut.” And those are the ‘decent’ names, compared to the other names he used.
According to tweets from Anthony, the woman and the “5 blacks” that joined her are “animals” who “prey on white people”:
Patrick Reilly, the Senior Vice President of SiriusXM issued the following statement on Friday, confirming to Buzzfeed that Anthony was in deed fired.
SiriusXM has terminated its relationship with Anthony Cumia of the Opie & Anthony channel. The decision was made, and Cumia informed, late Thursday, July 3 after careful consideration of his racially-charged and hate-filled remarks on social media. Those remarks and postings are abhorrent to SiriusXM, and his behavior is wholly inconsistent with what SiriusXM represents.
Here are just some of the tweets from Anthony Cumia that got him fired!
Sirius decided to cave and fire me. Welcome to bizarro world. Fired for shit that wasn’t even on the air & wasn’t illegal. So, who’s next?
