December 07, 2009 The Buzz: Our apologies to Bubba the Love Sponge®

February 19th, 2010 by


The ST PETERSBURG TIMES’ political editor Adam Smith has posted an apology to Tampa-based syndicated and satellite radio host Bubba the Love Sponge® for an inaccurate item posted late last week:

We made a stupid error the other day and owe a sincere apology to radio personality Bubba the Love Sponge. In noting a Charlie Crist fundraiser at the Tampa home of Stephen Diaco, Sponge’s attorney, we noted that Bubba had once asked Crist about his sexuality. Wrong.

Crist has often appeared on the Bubba show, but in fact that 2006 conversation actually occurred on the “Randy and Dave Show” on WQYK-FM. Again, our apologies.
