The host of 'Bad Cop, No Donut!' on CKLN Radio in Toronto has agreed to change his show's e-mail address, but that's about it.

The addy was ihatepigs@hotmail.com. It will now be ron@ckln.fm.

An excerpt from the Toronto Star story:

The producer of a local radio program that airs negative stories about police says he's changing the controversial email address for the show, which drew the ire of police Chief Julian Fantino this week.

Fantino called it a "hate-mongering" program, but Ron Anicich, the show's volunteer host and producer, stands by the content of Bad Cop, No Donut! which airs Thursday mornings on CKLN 88.1-FM, a Ryerson campus radio station.

Anicich, 38, has concluded his show in the past by inviting listeners to "email your comments and story ideas to ihatepigs@hotmail.com." He agreed in an interview that the address might offend some listeners and has since changed it to ron@ckln.fm.

"While I'm not offended by it personally, I can see why people would be," Anicich said.

The university hasn't contacted the radio station to ask for the change and any complaints would be referred to CKLN, said Ryerson spokesperson Bruce Piercey.

Fantino has pressured Ryerson to ban the program.

"I'm disgusted that this kind of hate mongering would be directed at our police officers," Fantino said this week.

Indymedia has an MP3 audio interview with Anicich about this.
