Sirius Radio - Alex Bennett Hate speech incorrectly discribed as Left Talk New York New York

This morning, Mr. Bennett and a male caller who is also a self described pimp mused about how Ike Turner may have gotten a raw deal and then speculated on nothing more than their shared demeaning attitude towards the women in general, speculated that Tina Turner may have contributed to the violence in her marriage. Then, as if to provide an exclamation point, Bennett added that OJ Simpson often made accusations that Nicole had abused him during the course of their marriage, i.e the victim may have some how deserved and was getting the benefit of the doubt because she was a woman. The Alex Bennett show is often filled with comments about which female head of state might be good looking enough to masturbate to. There are constant reminders that Alex used to date strippers and has a girlfriend who is one third his age. And this is called left or liberal talk. It is not. And it is disrespectful and outright fraudulent to call this political talk at all. It's one thing to simply turn off the radio but the fact is that the subscribers are paying Mr. Bennett's salary. Complaints to Sirius and calls to Mr Bennett are brushed aside as typical listener frustration. The fact is that many Sirius listeners are not aware they are funding this kind of programming in part because Mr. Bennett has a limited audience. But they are still paying for it and need to know how dismissive the customer service department at Sirius is to such concerns. I will not renew my multiple subscriptions when they run out. But I advise anyone who wished to purchase a subscription to Sirius, especially anyone looking for a progressive point of view not to be taken in by any claims that such programming is actually provided.
