"What is problem with turning the dial if people don’t like what they see or hear?"

Good point. But if you are offended you have as much right to say you are offended as the person does to say something offensive. The irony is that people say and do offensive things then get mad when they get the response they wanted in the first place. If you are going to say something you know is offensive you should have the integrity to take it on the chin when people hit back. You asked for it. Furthermore you often don't know if something is going to offend you until you hear it. Once you do, you have a right perfect right to say how offensive it is.

I just don’t care if people are offended. You don’t have a right not to be offended. I bet very few of the “offended” even listen to the show. This is just a beginning for the censorship to come by the far left.

If this offends you and your sensitivities-well, I just don’t care.
