The infamous ART BELL has just announced that he is quitting radio for
good because he and his family are being stalked and threatened. This
is awful. I have written Art Bell to see if I could get anymore
information. From what I can see,he has asked someone to replace him as
the host of his own show. This is tragic folks! Here are the FACTS:
For the last several weeks 70-year-old radio legend Art Bell has been
shot at, twice, by some crazy person who’s bound and determined to force
Bell to stop doing his show. The last incident was just a few days
ago; Bell was on his way to his studio when shots rang out. Bell was
forced to lie in the dirt on his belly until the police showed up.
For several nights over the last few weeks, his frightened family
members have been forced to sleep on the floor instead of in their beds
as a means to ensure their safety, which is nothing short of horrible.
Mr Bell issued the following statement over on his website (see link below)
“I am sorry to have to announce this but I will not be on Tonight or
any other night, yes I am going to hang it up. Whoever this crazy person
is, they are not stopping and it has come to the point that we as a
Family do not feel it is worth the risk. While I think the person or
persons are after me, my Wife and now my Daughter are really scared, the
other night after the latest incident my Daughter was off in the
corner of her bed scared to death as the Police cars came screaming up.
I will not put my Family through this. As you all know I dearly love
what I do but not at the expense of never ending Terrorism. I want to
thank those of you who have shown so much support and it has been my
joy, short as it has been to have cracked that Mic open for a last
time. This was a Family decision. The girls stuck with me and still
would but if one of them were harmed because of what I love doing my
life would be over.”
This is news that is as awful as it is sad. To think we live in a
world in which a 70-year-old man who is just simply doing what he loves
and now has been prevented from doing so by some crazy asshole is
sickening. We do not blame Art at all; family and safety must comes
first. We wish Bell well and hope that maybe… just maybe… this can be
resolved and we will once again… take the ride….
As for the crazy asshole… Do your little victory dance… just know that
karma is a bitch. A scathing, merciless, fire and brimstone bitch, and
when she catches up with you… well… it will be a wonderful day.
