Shock jocks are radio broadcasters or DJs who entertain listeners and attract attention using humor and/or melodramatic exaggeration that may offend some portion of the listening audience1. The term is used pejoratively to describe provocative or irreverent broadcasters whose mannerisms, statements and actions are typically offensive to much of society1. It is a popular term within the radio industry1.
According to some sources, the first shock jock in America was Joe Pyne, who hosted a talk show in the 1960s that featured interviews with some of the most polarizing figures of the era, such as campus radicals, hippies, Black Panthers, Ku Klux Klan members, and anti-war protesters23. Pyne was known for his confrontational style and his insults to his guests and callers2. He influenced later shock jocks such as Howard Stern, who became famous in the 1980s for his raunchy and controversial humor13.
Another type of shock jock is the political radio announcer who has an emotional outburst in response to a controversial government policy decision1. Some examples of this kind of shock jock are Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and Michael Savage, who have expressed conservative views on various topics such as immigration, abortion, climate change, and terrorism14. These shock jocks often use inflammatory rhetoric and personal attacks to criticize their opponents and rally their supporters14.
Shock jocks have been censored or fined by regulators or advertisers for violating decency guidelines or broadcasting harmful content1. They have also faced lawsuits or protests from groups or individuals who felt offended or harmed by their statements or actions1. However, some shock jocks have also been praised for their honesty, courage, humor, or influence on public opinion34.
