If people want to go on Stern to be degraded, then that's their choice, no one can say “I didn't know" it’s like smoking, people have known for years it will kill you, just as he’s been an ass for years.

I think the FCC and Powell JR has been listening too much to daddies boss on it and needs to butt out, just read this morning that Powell JR wants the broadcasters to get their own “code of conduct”, if they don't they won't like the one the government gives them.

Nice.

I personally do not like the humor of degrading someone; I just don't think it's funny. I'm not into the "jackass" style of humor. They have the right to do it, I'd just prefer to watch and laugh at something funny, I sure as hell do not write the FCC and cry or whatever, I simply change the channel.

But I do think it’s funny that Stern had his fans call and complain about Oprah. And just the other night watching “Law and Order SVU” they said and shown the word “Dickweed” on a pc. This is the double standards BS that gets me.

Years ago, MTV censored out the girl flipping off the camera in the Aerosmith video, BUT the very next video was Pearl Jam and they clearly say “Crazy little Fuck….”

I agree with Dr B, this needs to be a bigger issue, and I’m hoping as it gets closer to the elections it will be. King George the 2nd’s record on free speech is getting worse on a daily bases.
