marksimons Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 mmm but does it make a difference?ultimately. if you get fired for criticising the government, whether or not it's BY the government, if it's by people who support the government and don't want it criticised then it amounts to pretty much the same thing...

mr mahs Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 Originally posted by bigpoppanils indirectly they arethe FCC lowered the bar for indecency, and increased the fines on radio stations. this forces radio stations to change their content or face massive fines. Does profanity and nudity really need to be on radio?For the record I am not 100% behind the govt or the radio sations but I can see and understand with parts of each side of the arguement...

pattbateman Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 i could care less what howard stern doesi have been listening to him since i was in highschoolwhat ever the company that has him on their stations chooses to do with him is totally up to them. that is all i am trying to sayhe is just pissed he lost listeners, and money, to the tune of about 250,000 a day per station lost (thats what they pay to have him played everyday) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
