The Federal Communications Commission responded to an outpouring of complaints following an August 2002 broadcast of the Opie and Anthony show over New York's WNEW-FM and 12 other Infinity radio stations. The nationally syndicated show was canceled a week later and DJs Greg "Opie" Hughes and Anthony Cumia were fired.
