PITTSBURGH, PA — Industry trade publication Radio Ink is labeling KDKA-AM talk show host Wendy Bell's on-air future as "unclear." The station last week took her off the air for advocating that people who vandalize historical statues should be shot. Entercom Pittsburgh Senior Vice President Michael Spacciapolli said last week that Bell was off the air "until further notice." "Entercom is the home to thousands of voices representing Americans of all races, ethnicities, gender identity, sexual orientation, beliefs and ability,"Spacciapolli said. "We take very seriously our responsibility to provide a platform for our communities to engage in diverse and meaningful dialogue, debate and the right to freedom of speech, we do not condone the incitement of violence on any of our platforms."
