Hi Doc,
I don't want to become a troll or a virtual stalker here so this will be my second and last time posting on this subject but:
Isn't it time to move on? Or can't you at least move on to another case where free speech rights are being trampled? Maybe a case where the person hasn't been broadcasting to millions of listeners and making millions of dollars?
Last I checked Stern's still on the air anyway. And it wouldn't surprise me if he stays there since he obviously makes money for the broadcaster.
By the way, here is what I think is a pretty level-headed view of the situation from Corey Deitz at about.com: http://radio.about.com/cs/latestradionews/a/aa031504a.htm
And finally, I defend your right to listen to Stern but I think you need to realize that there are other people that find him disgusting or just not funny. It doesn't have to be because they're part of the religious right or because they're a Bush supporter, it's just a matter of personal preference - just like you. I mention this because your posts on this subject often have a subtle "if you don't 'get' Howard, you're an uptight idiot" kind of message. I also am a little amazed that you can't understand that some parents (apparently not you) might not want their children to have access to Stern's material and want to express their views on that. Let the market and culture sort it out!
Daniel
