Two St. Louis hip-hop deejays are suspended after holding an on-air discussion on the best ways to fight police officers, including how to disarm them and take their radios, preventing them from calling for help. The comments came just days after the fatal shooting of police officer William McEntee in suburban St. Louis. DJ Kaos and DJ Sylli Asz, as well as officials at KATZ F-M, have since apologized.

A Lexington radio DJ promised his listeners "100 grand" if they were the 10th calle. Little did the listeners know, all they were competing for was a candy bar. Norreasha Gill won the radio contest and is suing after the station gave her a candy bar - a Nestle's 100 Grand - instead of $100,000. Gill filed a complaint in Fayette District Court against Atlanta-based Cumulus Media, which owns WLTO-FM in Lexington. Gill, 28, says the station and its parent company breached a contract to pay $100,000 to the contest winner. The lawsuit alleges night host DJ Slick sponsored the station's contest to "win 100 grand. " Gill won after listening to the radio show for several hours and being the 10th caller. She went to the radio station the next morning to pick up her prize, but was asked to return later. When she got home, she found that the station manager had left a message explaining she had won a 100 Grand candy bar, not cash. Gill says he later offered her $5,000. She refused, "I said I wanted $95,000 more. Nobody would watch and listen for two hours for a candy bar. "
