    Polish groups upset with 97 Rock over Dyngus Day Polish jokes

    The founder of Buffalo's Dyngus Day parade demanded an apology from 97 Rock radio station Saturday for airing Polish jokes on the day of the Polish-American post-Lenten celebration.

    The station spent hours Monday "airing one insult after another," said Eddy Dobosiewicz, a former stand-up comic and current president of Dyngus Day Buffalo, at a protest Saturday outside the Polish Cadets Club in Black Rock. "Polonia will not stand for that and if we don't get the apology we deserve soon we will take additional steps" including pressing for a boycott by advertisers.

    I'm polish and realize jokes are jokes. Is there a podcast of the show so we can see how far they went?

    Wouldn't it be refreshing if everyone would grow the hell up? Especially people on radio and tv.

    Can't we all just get along -

    Everybody is so sensitive now a day. All this Political Correctness is driving people crazy -

    PS - I hope these people know the big dogs at 97 are Polish - most radio people use stage names.
    #Dems play musical chairs + patronage and nepotism = entitlement !

    Morning show people aren't Polish... Lederman is Jewish, I think Bull is Italian or German (Gaenzler) and Chris Klein is whatever she is.
