Banning unpopular/offensive speech is a dangerous game.
Its OK to say they offend you...........
Should we ban blacks because a racist is offended?
But its the context of where the joke is coming from.
They are just going for jokes...... not making serious political points.
As I said the market decides their worth.
If they piss off enough people they will lose their audience.........and their show.
The whole basis of Freedom Of Speech is to protect unpopular/offensive speech........
Thats the left wing irony........... they try to censor as much as the nutty right wing.......
