I saw that episode of Oprah. It was about teenagers and sex, and it was extremely graphic. She gave a warning that the show was for mature audiences only and that if there were children in the room, they shouldn't watch it. I think that the guest was a doctor who used and defined graphic terms like tossed salad which I had learned courtesy of Chris Rock on cable tv. I remember being shocked that this was on regular tv.
I don't listen to Howard Stern often anymore, but when I do I think he's funny. If he gets too raunchy, I do something radical like, oh I don't know, change the station. What a concept. He did say that Oprah is beloved so she isn't fined by the FCC. Her earlier mentioned show was probably the one of most graphic ever seen on tv.
Howard Stern said was that his show had been on over 60 radio stations a few years ago, but now he is 40-something stations. I didn't realize that he couldn't be heard everywhere. Now I understand why he is going to satellite radio. He also mentioned how "Saving Private Ryan" couldn't be shown on Veteran's Day because of the fear of FCC fines. These FCC fines are really shaping what can be seen on tv and heard on the radio.
