I think that people are mainly upset with the station because this station does a lot for the community. They are always broadcasting from some community center and or school. A few months ago, they hosted an event to get African Americans to get tested to become bone marrow donors. They are constantly having informationals for elementary/middle school students to keep them from smoking. They have political commentary every morning (my primary reason for listening). So for the station owners to decide against editing the N-word because it cost too much, made many of its viewers feeling dissappointed.
