Since when has Howard Stern become the poster child for anti-bush fanatics?
The man broadcasts on freely available public airwaves explicit and graphic details of things that are adult in nature during non-prime-time hours.
It's been in the FCC rulebook for a very long time that you cannot do this.
He broke the rules, he got smacked for it. No one has censored him, no one has said he can't continue to talk his trash. There are no police busting down his door putting duct tape over his mouth or hauling him off to the filthy talker's prison.
Fucking get over it already. It's got nothing to do with Bush and everything to do with Stern breaking the rules.
I've got an FCC license Meni. So does Gonzo. Do you?
If not, I suggest you go read the FCC's rules on allowable broadcasts, adult material, and common decency laws before screaming about the religious right trying to squelch anyone's right to spew filth.

Stern hasn't been fined YET
but talk shit about bush
and oh boy
lets find something
something 3 years old
then if Viacom tries to go to court
the gov will make sure its tough for Viacom
to renew licenses, to buy and sell stations
stern went thru this before
and Viacom ended up paying the $1.7 mill instead of losing a big purchase of a station
cuz of the red tape, lost papers, calls unanswered
