“I’m against her binary thing. I think she’s a troubled woman and a lot of young people are taking her seriously and it bothers me,” Kiss 108 FM′s Matt Siegel said.
A Boston DJ returned to the airwaves on Thursday after storming off his radio show following a rant about Demi Lovato coming out as non-binary.
On Wednesday, Kiss 108 FM′s Matt Siegel threatened to end his popular “Matty in the Morning” program following producers’ insistence that he end his rant about the pop star changing pronouns.
“I did say that I was going to quit,” Siegel told his listeners on Thursday morning, per NBCBoston. “The company reached out to me and said, ‘Please don’t. We support you and we will not be stopping you from saying what you want to say.’ So I said, ‘Okay.'”
“Sorry to disappoint those of you who are excited that I was leaving, but I’m still here,” he added.
Regarding Wednesday’s incident, Siegel said he felt like he was “on a roll” while talking about Lovato’s announcement, according to The Boston Globe.
“And that’s when I got the call [from corporate management] and I just snapped. I just said, ‘I can’t be here anymore.'”
“We live in a world where you can’t say what you want, and I’m not talking about swearing, but in traditional radio boundaries,” he added. “If I can’t say what I’m thinking I don’t want to do it anymore.”
