<p>A spokesperson for Cumulus Media confirmed to PEOPLE in a statement Lederman had been "swiftly terminated."</p>

<p>"CUMULUS MEDIA operates from a clearly-defined set of programming principles and there is no question that Rob Lederman's comments made on The Morning Bull Show are in direct violation of those principles," the statement read.

<p>Lederman later said in an interview that he was&nbsp;"horrified" when he listened back to the recording of the broadcast.</p>

<p>"I could easily see how someone could be offended by that. I get that," Lederman said. "It sounds terrible, and it is terrible... Now, can I take back those words? No. If you listen to them, were they meant to be hurtful? Absolutely not."</p>

<p>Lederman added that he hoped to "learn from" the incident, and offered an apology to "anybody that would be hurt" by his comments.</p>
