rules
dude you don't even know how this works
1 person writes the FCC
then the FCC will look at the transcript
then the FCC and the FCC alone determines if there is a FINE
how american is that?
the FCC chairman who Bush appointed
and the letter writers from the religious right complaining about everything
bono
stern
opie and anthony
mancow
and how many other dj's?
a chick got fired cuz her producer forgot to bleep out the f word
500K fines are coming
for 1 violation
and who determines what is indecent
YOU, the FCC? BUSH?
what's indecent to some housewife in Nebrasks isn't indecent to me

i understand that you are infinately more intelligent in spite of your mindless babbling than i could ever hope to be... but i think its also important to point out that the "rules" are extremely clear. i have read them in their entirety as well as heard them discussed on local radio shows.

who decides? well.. the FTC decides. thats what everyone signed up to when they applied for a licence to use public airwaves.

anyway... relax, Stuttering John is now on Leno so it will not be a total loss for you when Bush forces Stern off the air while causing deficits, losing jobs, causing terrorists and generally antogonizing and annoying the world
