Eliot is generally pretty funny. I listen to his show in the mornings and highly enjoy it. Yes, I did think this was tasteless and offensive so I just flipped the station.

There are a lot of comments here on FR about not needing a 'Nanny State' telling us what to do or who knows whats best for us. This the same kind of thing. I like Eliot; when he gets to crass/offensive for me I change the station. If you don't like him don't listen, change the station. Don't demand he be taken off the air when there are many who do enjoy his show. When it comes to YOUR radio, YOU have the power to change the station. No one is forcing you to listen to something you find offensive on your radio. Again, if you don't like it, listen to a different station; thats what I did.

"and bringing their children to school."
Kids shouldn't be listening to Eliot so if a parent has him on with their kids around thats bad parenting, not a bad broadcaster.

So, I guess the "nanny state" shouldn't try to stop anyone from killing their babies in utero...If you have no problem with this crude celebration of death coming through the public airwaves you are siding with evil, imho. Sometimes even libertarians need to say "enough"!

Abortion is murder. There are no two ways about it.

New legal but tasteless show ideas:
"How did you pull the plug on your grandma?"
"The most graphic ways to shoot a man in wartime"
"Fun ways to kill animals who stray on your property"
"Describe your bondage fantasy with your secretary"

It is interesting to kill 16 babies, instead of horrifying.

A man who in the defense of the US kills 16 men would cause people to call in and demand the jocks head.
