Later O&A.
WNEW fired Opie & Anthony because of Sex for Sam 3. I can't say that I'm surprised. Encouraging couples to copulate in public places for cash is not something I would condone if you want to keep your broadcasting license. Some other station will pick them up quickly - they were the #1 rated show in their time slot.
If you want some firsthand information, this is a link to the actual audio broadcast (including the arrest) which led to the firing (listener discretion advised):
