Why would a radio station leave this up for almost a day?

I would like others to email KMA with comments

General manager Mark Eno [e-mail]

1. Mail sent.

[Mrs. Overall]

2. Another poster mentions it as well:

"I don't want my children exposed to ongoing sin of any nature. Not drunkeness, lewd speech, gossipping, adultery, theft or lying. You guys need to get a hold on your judicial branch and hammer down. A truck and a chain.......I'm not sure what we would do with them, but we could surely get someone's attention."

3. Got a reply back from KMA Radio

Here's what the General Manager says, with my email below:

Gxxxxx,
Thanks for the e-mail.

I appreciate your thoughts and comments. Yes, some of the comments are questionable, thoughtless and frustrating to you and to me. However, what I REALLY believe in is the ability for smart folks, like yourself, to separate the crap from the cream. Today's technology offers the ability for people to voice their opinions openly which falls into the freedom of speech that we all enjoy. Hopefully, the majority of listeners/viewers realize we've still got a long way to go as a state, country and civilization. We do monitor the comments and have taken some off. It's a fine line and very subjective to who's monitoring at the time......not a science.

Again, I appreciate you taking the time to contact me and please do anytime.

Mark

Have you looked at the comments on gay marriage on your site? Is that what your station represents? Does nobody monitor comments?

A truck and a chain? For shame. That is not the Iowa I know.
