This Canton, Ohio radio station has a history of mocking disabled people. In 2006, after a large outcry, media attention from across the country, and hundreds of phone calls to the station, and a demand for action, the DJ was fired. Here is a thread about that story:

Q92 WDJQ from Canton, Ohio has done it again. Another DJ, according to a family, spent hours mocking a girl with Down's Syndrome and playing her phone call on the air after she called the request line by mistake. The story makes me sick to my stomach.
The story is going viral today. Please help spread the word, rally everyone you know to call the station, it's advertisers, and the media. The fact that this is happening again and that general manager Don Peterson is handling it so poorly is disgusting. Pressure needs to be much stronger than back in 2006. They obviously have not learned anything.

Butt..........
I just saw this just now.........Speaking as a disabled person myself, That's beyond appalling, but, not surprising, Donald Trump did the same thing to disabled reporter with Parkinson's Disease.
What a terrible human being, to make fun of something.
We disabled have no control over who we are, People don't like how we look or act, They should keep it to themselves.
Like the saying: "If You don't have anything nice to say.....Don't say it at all"
Unfortunately, I guess there some people out there that just weren't brought up right.
