I guess I'm the one who made the complaint. It wasn't stupid and self serving and I won't apologize for it. I found the joke in extremely poor test and said so. Using a tragic event as the punchline for a joke is just wrong, no matter what his intent was. My comment had nothing to do with the fact that the video had been shown numerous times on the television. It was the context in which it was shown here that was wrong.

I also wish Bliss would come back. I enjoyed most of his jokes and ignored those that I didn't. This one crossed the line and I expressed my opinion.

As Ron said, he wasn't suspended because of joke. Someone else said at the time he needs to recognize he made a mistake and move on. He chose to respond differently.
