I see a difference, but I don't see it as a problem. The fines before were too low and did not provide a deterrant. This is why the standards were ignored. The fines were no big deal.
Club, the issue for you seems to be that the public airwaves are regulated at all. While I consider myself a moderate and libertarian-like in my thinking, I just don't have a problem with there being some content regulation of that which is broadcast on the public airwaves.
