1 of 10
"When [the host] described losing his keys as 'bad,' I think after that he said that the apocalypse was 'sh***ty.' It didn't get bleeped, and you guys are usually pretty good at that. Either you slipped up or my ears are going bad, but I played it about 10 times and I'm pretty sure that's what he said."

"It is nothing but the offensive, uninformed rantings of a mad man more suited to waving a sign as a stinking hobo on the street rather than clogging the airwaves and wasting our time being broadcast on television... There is simply nothing newsworthy about anything literally vomited forth from this man's mouth."

ANSWER: Here's more of this complaint: "In presenting his views regarding Edwards' extramarital affair, [the host] referred to Edwards as a 'scum bag' numerous times. A scum bag is a condum [sic] full of ejaculate, a derogitory [sic] name for a female and/or a male homosexual. I find this kind of language antipodal to scholarly political discourse. It also distracts from a biased view point presentation due to unnecessary licentious verbage [sic]... [The host] is not a rap star, this show does not warn the viewer of sexually derogatory language or hate speech."

"During one of the pieces about Madonna visiting Israel, he mentioned her 'TIT CONES' on TV. This type of 'humor' shocks and offends me. What do you plan on doing about this type of behavior and what type of constraints will be put in place to prevent this type of behavior again?"

"[The host] very forcefully and clearly stated to the audience that Mr. Chirac should 'shut his pie hole.' I find this sexual slur, referencing a woman's vagina in the most vulgar of manners, to be completely unacceptable. I would certainly hope the FCC would investigate this. It is repugnant and it is demeaning."
