Ranting, teacher-bashing KFI radio host selling home for over 2.6 million dollars
On air, John Kobylt of The John and Ken show rants and raves about teachers "high" salaries (like 40K). Meanwhile, this hypocritical bastard has a Beverly Hills home worth over 2.6 million:

John Kobylt, one-half of KFI-AM radio's "John and Ken Show" team, has listed his Beverly Hills home for sale at $2,695,000.

1.  John (Kobylt): a racist.
* The John & Ken Show is fundamentally fraudulent and makes professional wrestling seem credible in comparison
* John Kobylt is the main reason that John Ziegler is no longer at KFI
* John Kobylt made one of the most racist statements ever made by a person in his position and, in the opinion of John Ziegler, is a racist.
* Ken Chiampou is presumed to be a homosexual by nearly everyone at KFI and why that should matter to KFI listeners.
* There is a lot that John & Ken don't want you to know about how they do their show and determine what they are going to say
* Bill Handel is a fair-weathered "friend" who hates John & Ken but who committed one of the most massive acts of hypocrisy imaginable after strangely going out of his way to defend John Kobylt
* KFI management is utterly incompetent and corrupt
* John Ziegler is hardly perfect and not talented enough to be a success doing KFI's brand of deceptive talk.
* At the end of John Ziegler's tenure at KFI things got so absurd that they were absolutely comical

2.  Kobylt: " trying to control Muslims is like trying to control Black people... it will never happen"
However, according to Ziegler the depth of animus that Kobylt felt for him was much deeper and ultimately resulted in his demise at KFI.

Here are just a few examples provided by Ziegler.

Kobylt blew up at him and told him to "get out of his studio" when, he questioned why he had changed his position on the War on Iraq. (Kobylt initially supported the war, but has a lately become a critic.)

Here’s the clip: http://therealkfi.com/clip11.html

When he confronted Kobylt on September 11, 2006, about this, Kobylt told him "Actually, it is what I really believe, because trying to control Muslims is like trying to control Black people… it will never happen…it's not in their make up."

From this point on, relations between Ziegler and Kobylt continued to deteriorate and at least one other talk show host – Handel -- and management -- Bertolucci, also turned against him.
