[isn] La Cuca Gotcha.. Radio Show asks people to 'catch illegal immigrants' - PLEASE WRITE IN/ CALL IN to protest!

Flyers with the following text have been found in immigrant neighborhoods in New Jersey. FYI, La Cuca Gotcha is a play on the word 'Cucaracha', which means cockroach in Espanol... how much more disgusting and racist can people get? An alt name for this 'campaign' is 'Rat a Rat'.

TEXT OF FLYER:
Feb 8, 2007

New Jersey, America's most listened-to FM afternoon show, The Jersey Guys, starring Craig Carton and Ray Rossi, on WKXW NJ 101.5 FM have begun an initiative to assist in the roundup and deportation of illegal immigrants in NJ. The project entitled ' La Cuca Gotcha' is encouraging all the listeners of The Jersey Guys, popular radio show, to find and report the existence of illegal immigrants. The Jersey Guys have established three methods for concerned citizens to report the whereabouts of illegal immigrants.

1. Toll-free hotline managed by The Jersey Guys staff
2. Federal government hotlines
3. Direct email to The Jersey Guys staff

The initiative which began on Tuesday February 6 has already shown dividends with hundreds of calls to federal authorities, will commence on Saturday May 5th to coincide with Cinco de Mayo. The role is to make New Jersey safer by legally reporting and deporting illegal immigrants who have repeatedly flaunted our laws and disrespected our country's long storied history of welcoming immigrants with open arms. 'The Jersey Guys'
show is broadcast weekdays from 2-7 pm, and is heard in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware.

For more information please contact our producer Charod Williams at 609-893-6609.
