“The vagueness of the language will lead broadcasters and individuals to stifle their remarks and remain silent rather than run the risk of facing an FCC fine,” said Marvin Johnson, an ACLU Legislative Counsel. “In the end, we are left with no clear understanding of just what is ‘indecent’ and worse yet, it seems we will only find out when huge fines are levied on broadcasters or speakers.”

whats wrong with you? did i catch you in the middle of South Park or some PPV gay porn?
Where is the First Amendment being violated? What "violates" the First Amendment?
1) the "vagueness" of anything is does not explain where the First Amendment is being violated.
it either is... or isn't.
the rules are either legal... or unconstitutional.
2) the new rules are FAAAARRRRRRRR from vague. they are pretty specific... but you have not read them or you would know that.
3) there has always been regulations on what can and cannot be said on public airwaves. why and how is it a sudden issue of "Constitutionality"?
