- ALT1:... that an April Fools' Day prank by morning show hosts Opie and Anthony led to their firing from Boston-area radio station WAAF? Source: https://web.archive.org/web/20161107013137/http://www.southcoasttoday.com/article/19980409/News/304099957

- Comment: The lone uncited paragraph-ending sentence is mostly connective material and not really something that can be cited; it's backed up by the next section. No shortage of good hooks!
Improved to Good Article status by Sammi Brie (talk) and Nathan Obral (talk). Nominated by Sammi Brie (talk) at 01:52, 18 May 2021 (UTC).
- Verified as a new GA. Certainly long enough and well cited, no policy issues suspected. I've only reviewed ALT1 because it is shorter, hooky, and just reads better than ALT0. ALT1 is short enough, reads well, properly cited. Approving with ALT1. QPQ done. No other issues. MB 16:08, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
