Jenna Kern-Rugile writes about shock jocks and the Tennessee Unitarian church shootings, and even quotes a phone interview with Rory, but misidentifies him slightly:
When I asked Rory O’Connor, author of a study of shock jocks and hate speech, for his take on the shootings, he replied, “Sure, these guys hold some responsibility for what happened, but we all hold responsibility – particularly anyone who hasn’t stood up and spoken out against hate speech. We’re all contributing to the climate where people are being dehumanized because of their beliefs.”
