They Dihh-ehhnt!
July 27, 2007

The Honolulu Star-Bulletin has the mother of all scoops--the call letters KUNT have been assigned by the FCC to an as-yet unbuilt low-power station in Maui. Erika Engle reports that the station owner, Illinois-based KM Communications, also received KWTF--WTF is email/text message shorthand for "What in Tarnation Are You Thinking?"--for a station in Arizona. 

KM veep Kevin Bae called the matter "extremely embarrassing" and vowed to file to have the letters changed immediately.

One can only imagine how many profanity fines--and hard slaps from females--the station would sustain over the course of a newscast.
