He's a shock jock, this is how he earns his living. Every time you quote him or complain about something he has said, you are doing what he wants you to. Just ignore him, it's not as if someone credible is saying these things, and getting indignant just plays into his hand.
I agree. He's only doing this to boost his ratings and get publicity. How many of you had even heard of this guy before this? I sure hadn't. Now everyone knows who he is, and more people will listen to his show. I saw on a news website that autism groups are trying to educate him and going on his show to try to get an apology out of him. Of course he'll just ridicule them, cause more controversy, and boost his ratings even more. Don't buy into his little game. Ignore him.
And remember, "ignorant bigot" is a redundant phrase.
