KSJO controversy
In 1989, Stone was fired from San Jose, California radio station KSJO after verbal harassment of two Brownies, telling one 9-year-old to keep Girl Scout Cookie money, on his March 10, 1989 show, it cost him a suspension.
A second incident on the same day, involving a teenage girl that wrote a letter to Stone, may have been more serious, KSJO attorney Michael Hurley said at a news conference. The girl's angry mother wrote a letter to station manager David Baronfeld and demanded a retraction. Stone returned to KSJO to record the retraction and the broadcast was the last time Stone was heard on the station.[7]
Stone's on-air radio sidekick while working at KSJO was Trish Bell.[8]
