Random thoughts from the 60s and beyond.

Fred Jacobs has made a career out of studying listener tastes and creating successful radio formats. In a recent Art Vuolo column in the Oakland Press are the results of a survey Fred took regarding the FCC's indecency fines in the wake of the Super Bowl. The radio purist in my is sick and tired of schlocks like Howard Stern who would rather shock than do the harder work of creating something that's funny without being prurient. But I also believe in the First Amendment and worry that the Feds could also over react. What do you think? Add your two cents on the Keener Bulletin Board.
