resulted from the allegations of child molestation, forced Michael

some Singapore fans were heard asking for their money back.

Listeners called in constantly, co1

hear their favorite song on the hd
radio. When the money slowed,
Millinder resorted to more...direct
pressure.

Columbia College junior.
Later, when a group from
Cracker Jacks pledged $200 to get
the dancers off the radio, Millinder
was supportive.
"Don't let that affect you at all,"
Millinder told the two dancers.
"That money will help a lot of
kids."
Robin Schade, program coordinator
for MDA, was excited about
Millinder's participation.
"I had never met John before,
and I think he's really shown a side
of him that people don't know
about," Schade said. "On the radio,
he's rude and crude, but he's really
got a big heart."
Millinder, who has been in radio
for more than 20 years, offered
advice for students looking forward
to a broadcasting career.
"It's an abusive business," he
said. "There's no job security. If
you do everything every boss you

At 12:30 a.m. Tuesday, almost

shook off his lack of sleep and
summed up the goings-on as accu

"What insanity," he muttered,
swilling a gallon jug of water.

Millinder said he plans on stay-?
