  2. I sent the following email to fox sports they won't respond. You have a huge organization with wide reach can you please bring this issue up to the attention of the public and fox sports to show support for all of our disabled humans who ever rode a short bus. Please....this aired august 12 .



    I'VE EMAILED MULTIPLE TIMES WITH NO RESPONSE TO MY COMPLAINT ABOUT SPORTS ANALYST GREG JENNINGS ASKING HIS CO-HOST ON THE SHOW UNDISPUTED IF HE HAD EVER RIDDEN THE SHORT BUS. WHO DOES THIS SORRY EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN BEING THINK HE IS MAKING FUN OF DISABLED KIDS. MY SON IS AUTISTIC AND RIDES THE SHORT BUS. THIS COMMENT WAS OUT OF LINE AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. MR JENNINGS NEEDS TO APOLOGIZE ON THE AIR TO THE MILLIONS WHO HEARD HIS COMMENT ON LIVE TV AND HE SHOULD ALSO BE FINED AND PUNISHED.

    To date Fox and Mr Jennings and the fcc have refused to acknowledge something wrong was done here. You amazing people are doing something to change perception and what I heard on live television is clearly a perception that needs to be changed. Please do something about this. You have the format to help. I'm just a father of a special needs child and this is all I can do. But I'm being ignored. Please help, make these people aware that they did wrong and make them publicly acknowledge their mistake in saying what was said and in ignoring the issue as far as the corporate response.
