Hot 97 Fires Miss Jones
June 28th, 2008
New York radio station Hot 97 has fired morning drive talk show host Tarsha Jones (Miss Jones) and replaced her with radio personality Big Boy and MTV Entertainment reporter Luscious Liz Hernandez. “Big Boy has an unmatched reputation for being entertaining… he also has great relationships with artists,” said Hot 97 programming director Ebro Darden. “Putting Big Boy on Hot 97 in New York City helps keep the high standard of radio happening for us.” According to Darden, Miss Jones will work all of next week which will allow her enough time to bid farewell to her listeners. “Miss Jones is one of the hardest working radio people I have ever seen and she made history with Hot 97,” said Darden. “Miss Jones will have the mic in mornings all of next week so that she is given her proper respect to tell her listeners how much she appreciates them and reminisce about how great this program has been.” Miss Jones was recently named in a federal lawsuit filed by New York lawyer Kevin Hunter. It claimed rival radio personality Wendy Williams and her husband tried to hire a hitman to knock her off.

I ALWAYS HATED MISS JONES FAT ASS!!!! I’m GLAD HER FAT ASS IS OF THE AIR.. SHE MADE FUN OF MY BEYONCE.. SO NOW SHE CAN SUCK A FAT #~~?~, CAUSE SHE WAS A $~#$!!! (`´,)? #%$? THAT FAT ASS *#@?@!!
All you Jonsey haters….. step off…..she was great at what she did…. always spoke her mind….. nothing ever got in her way……we will miss u jonsey……hot 97 doesn’t know what the hell they did…. they replaced jonsey with a bunch of boring cornballs…. don’t worry jonesy good people always land on their feet and so will u….. good luck in all u do……
Ebro and rosenburg???? That’s like replacing biggie with vanilla ice……lol….. ridiculous…….u have to be kidding me……not a good look for hot 97……. we miss u jonsey….. hurry back on the air…..plz…..
Horay, she is gone, too negative to listen to in the morning; I listen to Star & Buckwild Pulse 87.7 morning and Wendy Williams 107.5 BLS in the evening.
To all yu haters…yu didn’t have to listen to miss jones…it’s called change the radio station. If it’s too negative tinamace912@yahoo.com, change the station. Ms. Tee, Ray, Ron, and all yu other suckers….CHANGE THE RADIO STATION IF YU DON’T LIKE WHAT YU’RE HEARING. It’s 2008, let’s not be dumb and not know how to do that. Danielle, yu’re scared of black people in power, and that’s okay to react that way. Greg, yu’re probably gay. Holepuncha would have “sold out” too if someone handed him a good check to pay his bills. No one here has their own radio station and until yu get yur own, and make it the way yu want it, shut up and go make that peanut butter sandwich for yur kids. Instead of being envious, why not try to find ways to support freedom of speech? Instead of saying how yu hated the show why not just change the station? There are smut videos out there and young teens gang raping young girls. Why not be vocal about those things? It’s so easy to call someone a “bitch”. But it’s not easy to point the finger at yurself and see how lazy and lifeless yu really are. every time yu point a finger, remember, yu have 3 fingers pointing back at yu. Go ahead, point yur finger out and look at the other fingers. Oh yeah, get a life and stop being a bully. It’s only entertainment.
I WILL MISS JONSEY I MIGHT NOT AGREE WITH EVERYTHING SHE DID BUT IM STILL GOING TO MISS HER AND THE WHOLE MORNING SHOW ITS NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING YOURSELF IM PRETTY SURE HALF OF YOU HATING MOTHER—–ARE HATED BY SOMEONE SHE COULDNT B THAT BAD YOU ALL LISTEN TO HER AT SOME POINT IN TIME TRUTHFULLY I DONT THINK SHE GIVES A DAMN WHAT ANYBODY THINKS OF HER SHS STILLGETTIN PAID BYE HATERS
YOU WILL TRULEY MISSED. I DONT GO A DAY WITHOUT LISTENING TO YOU I WISH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ALL THE BEST. Dont pay all the haters any mind stay strong and postive.
ms jones was good for ny radio. she said things we felt in the hood but never got to say. big boy was boring when i heard him in vegas and cali. the truth hurts and people need to deal with the fact that alot of people like to lie to thier fans and she just used to expose those lies
About time Ms. Jones is gone. Ms.Jones may have all the talent in the world but could be very ignorant an inconsiderate. Ms. Jones is always hating alway talking a whole lot of nothing. Hot 97 should’ve left Sean Micheal and D.J Envy along with Ebro. And kick Ms. Jones to the curve.
finally Hot 97 got rid of her! not that i listened to her show on the regular…but the few clips i caught in the morning was more than enough to figure out that she was ignorant, uneducated , NOT well-spoken, and would not last very long! don’t be fooled, she never did graduate from syracuse, and it was so obvious…..it’s one thing to have a view point, but its another to be ignorant in getting your views across, especially on the air-waves with many listeners! she’s a dummy and will not be missed…. miss carmen, on the other hand, will be missed!
O, and I am not a hater…. just happy to hear a more positive show on the air, as I drive to work in the am..
wow this is definetly a shock ! i love those guys i only listen to her in the mornings and wendy in the afternoons. i am really disappointed , they made my morning. where is she? i would love to know and wish her well. i moved here (nJ) 3 years ago and the show was very informative for me. Hot 97 i think , big mistake you just lost a lot of listeners!~
She was broadcasting live from Philly but this morning from some reason she wasn’t on and when I went on the 100.3 The Beat website her picture was gone and she wasn’t on the DJ staff list… I think her show got canned.
long live STAR!!!!!
After exiting Emmis rhythmic WQHT (Hot 97)/New York on July 3, “Miss Jones in the Morning” has just been removed from the lineup of WPHI (100.3 the Beat)/Philadelphia. Monday morning (Aug. 4) was Miss Jones’ last day on the Radio One urban outlet, and her show, along with all of the players, has been replaced by “The Morning Beat” — an all-music morning show.
While on the air at Hot 97, Jonesy was heard simultaneously on 100.3 the Beat, and she has a reality show set to debut on BET. No word if her radio exit will affect her television program.
The music-driven direction in mornings on 100.3 the Beat will remain until further notice.
I’m glad she’s off Hot 97. She was horrible. She hated on anyone who was prettier than her (well that’s a whole lot of people : ) Maybe now she will have time to go to the gym and loose the 400 lbs. she gained
I really loved Miss Jones, and she will be sorely missed. I don’t know how I’ll get through my morning commute.THANKS HOT 97! of course she made silly comments…. it’s entertainment {{asses}} The format of the show was bafoonery, and i for one found it extreamly entertaining. All of the name calling is uncalled for. At the end of the day she’s only human, and she was only doing what she was being paid….. I love you Miss Jones, When one door closes God opens another….. Much luck in all your future endevors. Hot 97 has truely made a terrible mistake… PS BIG BOI, OR WHATEVER HIS NAME IS SUCKS…..
I love Mrs.Jones in the morning when Iwould take my husband to work I would listen and laught so hard till I cry. . Some time that would make my day. It was something 4 a older crowed. I guess she could take it down a bit. But over all I really like what she had to say. She let me know that at the end of the day she was just like me! And thats why I respect her. And you all were wrong todo what you’ll did to her. I hope you read this Igot your back . I cann’t waite till you come back!!!!!!!!!!!
Shes not coming back. She even got fired from her new job in Philly
Its called Karma. She was mean, rude and n-ggerish to people and most of NY, and even Philly DO NOT LIKE HER.
Like I said, she JUST got fired from the new radio station, after being CUT from Hot 97 LESS than a month ago! HELLO!
The majority of people dont want to hear BUFFOONERY.
We want to be entertained.
