It's not the FCC, Paulson. It's the American public. They're tired of being abused, on the airwaves.
Stern works for a private business. If the owner of that business wants to hamstring him, take it up with the owner of that business.

It's not the FCCGood Lord, you can be so ignorant.
I guess you haven't been paying much attention to the news since Janet Jackson whipped her boob out.
It's just the opening the government was looking for, so they can crack down on entertainment they don't like, like that Howard Stern trash or that anti-semetic Mel Gibson stuff that's suddenly popular.
All government broadcasting, all the time. And the idiots cheer.

It's not the FCC Paulson... then later..
But, the FCC (and most normal human beings) have a problem with descriptions of sex acts and the use of the "n" word on the airwaves... This "crackdown" is long overdue...
your spinning too fast sink. (and yes I normally agree with you on a LOT of things) Which is it? is it "NOT the FCC, Paulson", or is this "CRACKDOWN LONG OVERDUE?"
Censorship and arm twisting to get the same effect AS censorship by the fed is wrong. and an abuse of power, specifically an abridgment of the first amendment by other means. It's wrong.
And I don't listen to stern or anybody like him. It's MORE repulsive to me however, to contemplate censorship, than it is to be force fed Howard.
