KNZR's Jaz McKay confirms to 23ABC that he is no longer with the station

Posted
and last updated

Long-time radio talk show host Jaz McKay is out at KNZR following a racist rant on his personal Facebook page.

McKay confirmed to 23ABC that he was no longer with the station.

He also posted on his Facebook page that "it sure was a fun 11 years" and thanked his audience for their support.

Last week, McKay came under intense backlash after posting a Facebook Live video showing him making racial slurs aimed at Spanish music radio stations locally.

In the video he appears to call on his supporters to only listen to English radio stations. This is not the first time he's gotten into trouble. Last June, McKay's CCW permit was suspended for comments he made on Facebook about gun violence.

Since the most recent incident, McKay has not appeared on his show and has apologized after the video went viral.
