Talk radio host says Magic faked having AIDS

Not even Don Imus would be this stupid, would he? Magic Johnson certainly hopes not.
Minneapolis talk radio hosts Chris Baker and Langdon Perry of KLTK-FM, recently specualted that the former Lakers great “faked” having HIV/AIDS. Says he faked it for sympathy.
Perry said that he was “convinced that Magic faked AIDS. … I’m not sure why, but I’m pretty sure he faked AIDS … Cause he’s the only cured AIDS guy ever.
Johnson soon learned about the comments and issued a statement;
“I am extremely disappointed in KTLK in Minneapolis. I am outraged that Chris Baker and Langdon Perry would minimize such a serious and deadly issue. Millions are dying from HIV/AIDS and the fact that they would make jokes about my status is unbelievable,” Johnson said. “Chris, Langdon and KTLK should use their power in a more positive light by encouraging people to get tested for this disease instead of making up such ridiculous lies.”
And some people think Vic the Brick is outrageou
