I have heard the n-word on Howard Stern several times before- why all of a sudden is Clear Channel worried about offending black people? Not to mention how they discuss women. This was clearly due to pressure by the FCC.

Good for the FCC. They control the public airwaves, and until such time as they don't, people have to abide by the terms of the licenses they hold. No pissing in the public pool.

Who do you think put the pressure on the FCC?

Maybe the million letters they got in the mail the week after the Super Bowl had something to do with it.
