Two Long Island radio-station personalities have been suspended indefinitely after perpetrating a hoax involving a fictitious anti-LGBT parent.
Steve Harper and Leanna Karlson, cohosts of The K-98.3 Morning Show on Hempstead, N.Y., radio station WKJY, told listeners on Wednesday about a birthday-party invitation returned to gay parents with an anti-LGBT rant written on it. Except that all details of the story “were completely fabricated independently by Steve and Leeana,” read a statement posted to the station’s Facebook page.
