Karmazin Sticks Up For Stern

Nice! Finally, someone in power is standing up to the FCC! Mel Karmazin, head of Infinity Broadcasting and the main network of stations that broadcasts Howard Stern, has stated that the arbitrary guidelines set by the FCC are not applicable to Stern. In other words, he's ready for the challenge! Take that, Clear Channel, you bunch of jackasses!

The truth is that Howard isn't doing or saying anything different than he has for years and so it's not possible that he is currently breaking FCC rules. All this amounts to is election year posturing. I'm an avid Stern listener and will be the first to admit that his show is sometimes shocking and offensive but I'm also offended everyday by other thoughts and opinions in the media, including the terribly biased cable news networks. But I'm smart enough to change the channel... I guess some people aren't.
