Anthony Cumia, the more directly-named half of SiriusXM property Opie & Anthony, has posted an intensely profanity-laden tirade on Twitter following an alleged altercation in New York City’s Times Square — purportedly over a photograph.

According to Cumia’s rant (which contradicts itself in several aspects), the host was attempting to take a picture when a woman nearby objected to being included in the snapshot.

As of now, the woman involved has not given her side of the story, and it is unclear as to how the altercation that Cumia claims occurred began.

Yesterday, the SiriusXM host began to tweet about the alleged incident — we’re embedding some of the tweets below, but please be aware that the embeds contain language that is both profane and racist:

Then he says:

It’s worthwhile to point out that later on in his Twitter posting, Cumia posts an image of another woman — seemingly taken without her consent (in what might be known on the internet as a “creepshot”), and posted to his widely followed Twitter feed:

Reading between the lines of the Opie & Anthony host’s rant — which is continued and becomes far more vulgar and racist — it seems just as likely that the woman involved caught Cumia taking a similar “creepshot” of her in Times Square and became confrontational.
