Boston radio host Matt Siegel stormed off the air Wednesday in protest of not being able to joke about Demi Lovato’s announcement that they’re nonbinary. It’s unclear if Siegel actually ended his show.
The “Matty in the Morning” host and four-decade radio vet abruptly departed his Kiss 108 program, declaring, “Matty out.”
A representative for WXKS-FM did not immediately return a request for comment, though the Boston Globe noted that the station’s general manager, Alan Chartrand, insisted, “Everything is going to be fine.”
