Isolation Thought

Howard Stern gets fined again. Key paragraph notes the FCC is now reviewing Stern tapes for obscenity, instead of responding to specific complaints. I gather that if a broadcast offends no one, but the FCC, they can fine that particular broadcast entity. That should be highly offensive to anyone in the listening public. The FCC is reaching way over the line of their authority. Stern is their number one target, but if they succeed with him, it will easier for others to cave. It must stop. And please put "Jet Airliner" back on the airwaves. Fools.
