Here's a thread from Radio-Info (radio pros, insiders, and those interested in radio post there). Many people are saying it's a stunt. Jerseyites - do you know if this station actually plays much Tull?

And yes AXiD670, that was Johnny Depp, and it was VERY rude. I think it is all in who says it. A lot of people think he's weird anyway, so they don't care. The Chicks, on the other hand, should have known that a lot of their fans are of a conservative bent and would get upset.
Incidentally - shameless plug time - there's a REALLY good show on CMT called "Controversy." It tells the stories of some of the country songs that have created a stir politically & socially. I really don't like country, but this show is very interesting.
