...is inspired by the Howard Stern flap (although minus the political angle, in which the Bush-Cheney hacks at Clear Channel are using indecency as an excuse to bring down Howard for his pro-Kerry stance). I prefer to keep the Drooly strips on the light side; sex humor and talk about Republican party operatives don't exactly mix. In fact, please perish the thought immediately.

According to a broadcast I heard by WFMU station manager Ken Freedman, the rules defining indecency are extremely vague and subject to interpretation. At the same time, the FCC can now levy fines of $500,000, effectively destroying a small station. Which means broadcasters are now at the mercy of the FCC: piss'em off, and they can find a way to crush you.
