In a story over at The Daily Caller, The New Agenda joins others in calling for an on-air apology from Joy Behar (see video in blog story below):
Amy Siskind, president of the feminist group The New Agenda, told The Daily Caller she was appalled by Behar’s language calling it sexist and insulting.

The New Agenda is calling on Joy Behar to make a public, on-air apology for her inappropriate comments.  Her comments are not only offensive and unprofessional, but should not be part of our country’s national dialogue!
