Jesse JacksonThe Reverend Jesse Jackson and executives from The Word Network hand-delivered over 15,000 protest letters this week to Sirius Satellite Radio, arguing their decision to end Word Network broadcasts when the current contract expires on September 2nd.

Jesse Jackson is currently the host of The Word Network?s Rainbow Push with Jesse Jackson which broadcasts African-American ministries, gospel music and religious family programming.

Lewis Gibbs, vice president of operations for The Word Network, asked, ?If Sirius can make room for the values Howard Stern represents, we?d also like them to make room for the values we represent.?

…I’d have to disagree.
