THE STORY
BY FRANK LOMBARDI
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER
Scenes of death and destruction in Banda Aceh, Indonesia (below), are hilarious, right? Apparently to HOT 97 deejay Miss Jones (above), who aired parody.
Hip-hop radio station HOT 97 has sparked outrage across the city by airing a twisted song that shockingly mocks the 200,000 victims of the South Asian tsunami.
The radio station, WQHT, was forced to air an apology yesterday after the insulting song - whose lyrics include racial epithets aimed at Asians - was played for four days last week by morning deejay Miss Jones.
"We are absolutely appalled, saddened, outraged and angered," said Kai Yu of Asian Media Watch.
The nasty parody, sung to the tune of "We Are the World," makes light of how the killer tsunami "washed your whole country away."
Some of the other tasteless lyrics refer jokingly to orphaned children being sold into slavery.
"You're sick," City Councilman Robert Jackson (D-Manhattan) fumed at HOT 97.
Before one airing of the song, the station's news reader, Miss Info, who is of Asian descent, objected to the song, only to be attacked by Jones and her cohorts.
"That song is really offensive to me, and I opted not to involve myself," Miss Info said.
Jones replied, "I know you feel you're superior because you're Asian, but you're not." Later, co-host Todd Lyn, incensed at Miss Info's criticism, said, "I'm going to start shooting Asians."
Councilman John Liu (D-Queens) said it was outrageous that the station, owned by Emmis Communications Corp., aired the song for four days.
"It degrades the more than 200,000 victims," Liu said.
Liu and other Asian leaders have called for the Federal Communications Commission to crack down on the station and demanded that Miss Jones, whose full name is Tarsha Jones, be fired.
Jones and program director John Dimick both read apologies on the air yesterday.
"HOT 97 regrets the airing of material that made light of a serious and tragic event," Dimick said. "We apologize to our listeners and anyone who was offended."
Jones and six people working on her show will donate a week of their salaries to tsunami relief, Dimick said.
But Dimick refused to say whether Jones would be fired.

FIRE Ms. Jones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE LYRICS
There was a time, when the sun was shing bright
So I went down to the beach to catch me a tan
Then the next thing i knew
A wave 20 feet high came and wash your country away
And all at once, you can hear the screaming ch*nks.
And the no one was save from the wave.
There was africans drowning, little chinaman swept away
You can heard god laughing, swim you b*tches swim.

So now you're screwed, it's the the tsunami,
You better run and kiss your ass awake, go find your mommy
I just saw her float by, a tree right through her head.
And now your children will be sold in child slavery.

Cool, I hadn't know about this before reading it. I just signed the petition, though, and I was pretty explicit with my comment. That Jones ***** should be severely beaten and strangled for everyone to see @ Times Square!! Todd Lyn should be shot in the head at the same time!! I'm not asian, but the comments they made were a completely unwarranted attack on the victims of this horrible tragedy!! How can you even joke around about the orphaned children being sold into slavery?! That just shows you how primitive and stupid these ****in monkeys are that DJ @ HOT 97!!
