SiriusXM pulls Channel 127 Progressive [View all]

From my lineup. Happened last week. My radio was saying "updating" for a few days. I was patient and gave it some time, but after 4 days, still nothing, so I called.
It seems they have removed it from their radio lineup and moved it to online only.
WTF?
No notification.
I love Progressive, and listen the in the car all the time. Stephanie Miller in the morning and then Thom Hartmann in the afternoon.
The SiriusXM woman on the other end said a similar channel is Insight, and I have listened to it, and it's fine, but damnit, I want Progressive back!!

I also sent them an email complaining as such. Why remove it? Remove the catholic channel,. remove fucking Faux News or something else.

Arrgghhhh!!
