BUFFALO, NY (WKBW) – The entire Morning Bull radio staff at 97 Rock has been fired after a racist incident that took place on the show in March.
During a show on the morning of March 24, Rob Lederman compared the skin tones of black women to those of toast, which resulted in his firing.
Now Rich “Bull” Gaenzler and Chris Klein have also been fired. They were first suspended after the incident. The program director, John Hager, has also been terminated. Hager was inducted into the Buffalo Broadcasters Hall of Fame in 2018.

On reflection in response to the racist incident that occurred on The Morning Bull Show, we decided to end the entire morning show in addition to being the program director.
