I mainly agree with everything you've said, jerkass.

They put nation above Fred. Neither Fred nor nation should be in the top 10.

As far as Clear Channel goes, the FCC wouldn't understand antitrust aims and economic efficiencies if they hit it in the face.

And even if they did, they'd hit the problem that Clear Channel doesn't have a huge presence in any given city, which are the markets they look at.

Like I said, they put nation above Fred. I didn't mean that they outlawed religion.

artists may have an angle on it though:

Billboard has learned that the DOJ has requested an interview with an official from the Recording Artists' Coalition. The DOJ wants to discuss allegations of artist intimidation on the part of Clear Channel Communications, the giant radio and venue owner under fire for its business practices

Well, its probably money and time wasted anyway. Satellite radio will soon do to braodcast radio what cable did to the networks. This begs the question, "Do satellite radio broadcasters get the same exemption from the decency standards that the cable channels get?"

The funny thing about this morality policing being done by the family values camp is that all it really does is kill the networks. Pay TV and Radio will emerge as the only entertainment options for normal viewers. If all the good material goes cable because of the lax rules, then so too will the most coveted viewers. The advertisers want the upwardly mobile edcuated viewers, most of whom watch exclusively cable. The networks will have to get by with McDonalds and Pep Boys ads down the road.

And the end result is that cable will ultimately get raunchier. I guess its hard to explain to these conservatives in an election year that try to police morality is like trying to lower the water in a bathtub by pushing it down.

You deserve my unedited post for actually reading the rice thread.

I beg to differ. You must be referring to some imported model for guests or recent immigrants to our fair city...

BTW, Hank, where should I have the official Bridgeport Teamster Chicago Tourism Welcoming Committee meet you at??

If your stove is electric, you have no place participating in a cooking discussion. Might as well tell us how you tricked-up your Yugo.

Not again. Not the weekly "my range is better than your range" thread.

Americans are fat. Atkins will kill you.
