In The Market with Janet Parshall

I love to listen to this show on our local Christian radio, and usually I agree wholeheartedly with everything Janet says. She even had my former pastor on one of her shows. However, occasionally, she discusses polygamy, and you can guess which side she takes:

Here she imagines some polygamist is going to talk about having three wives, and then not allow the monogamist a chance to air his or her opinion. WHAT A LAUGH!

I have tried to contact the show a few times and voice my opinion, but I never get a response to any of the emails that I have sent.
 
Transcript of the portion of the conversation where polygamy is brought up:

Janet

...so if someone comes along and says you know, I wanna rent a room, and I've got some books. This one is called "John has three wives", and your local neighborhood polygamist comes and he's gonna extol the virtues of polygamy to kids, OK? Because you want to have an all comers policy and you want all kinds of ideas and openness and inclusion and conversation and discussion, and then you follow up with the monogamous...marriage...hour, and THAT one gets ostracized. Now I think you've got a pretty solid foot to stand on. It's objective. You're not finger pointing You are simply saying, "level playing field here. If you are going to do this...my attitude is I will meet you in the marketplace of ideas, (Craig interjects with "right") and I'm not going to protest your being in the market, I will meet you, and I will best you with a better idea."

Craig (husband)

Yeah, and the Bible says, "Let us (oops) Come let us reason together." Well, I'm gonna tell you, uh most of the folks in the [LGBTQI] movement don't want to reason. They want us to change our opinion. So the be--neck-- next best thing, is to put your booth in uhhhh, Vanity Fair. Right? And your booth says, "TRUTH". And you say, "You know, hey! I've got a different idea, and here's why I believe, and what I believe."

My thoughts are that the reality of the matter is that polygamy gets shut out of the marketplace of ideas. Finding any Christian programming on the radio, where polygamy is even considered acceptable, much less extolled as virtuous, is practically impossible.
