Actually, you're exactly right. Broadcasting and Cable magazine is full of indecendy stories this week and how the FCC and Congress are coming down hard on both radio and tv.

My comments vis a vis Rush had nothing to do with indecenty, by the way. Some posters felt that the real reason for Stern's problems are because he spoke out against President Bush -- thus my point about Limbaugh.

The National Association of Broadcasters has formed a working group to deal with indecency. There was a quote in the story from Chairman Powell which basically said, Clean up your act, because you don't want to see what happens if we do it for you.

ETA I just read on Broadcast and Cable online that Clear Channel has fired two more "Shock Jocks." The abstract I saw (I don't subscribe to the online feature) did not give their names or any other details.
