The point is that CC did not outright BAN the songs - as in the stations would have been punished by CC headquarters if they aired them - simply made a list of songs they found questionable. I thought that was ghey (tm AXJules), but there's a diff between a ban & advising.
It IS CC's choice to air whatever they want, no one is questioning that (except for Rudey.
Stern is still heard on the Infinity Broadcasting stations). I just don't believe that they are doing this because they are afraid of little children hearing Howard talk about three-ways. They care about money and publicity, not content.
