Shock jock

President Obama calls Sandra Fluke, student labeled a ‘slut’ by Rush Limbaugh; Santorum says shock jock's comments were 'absurd'

Shock jock is a slang term used to describe a type of any radiobroadcaster (sometimes a disc jockey) who attracts attention using humor that a significant portion of the listening audience may find offensive. The term is usually used pejoratively to describe provocative or irreverent broadcasters whose mannerisms, statements and actions are typically offensive to many listeners. It is a general-media term, rarely or never used within the radio industry.
