That segment was completely tasteless and lacking in sound judgement.
For what it's worth, the station has pulled the show:

I like the way HOT97 made a desperate attempt at the end of their statement to keep their advertisers from pulling their ads (read: $$$) from the station. Pathetic.

I guess some people feel that the way to gain "fame" is by being nasty and crude instead of by actually being clever and funny. Doubly pathetic.
