Accoriding to the FCC the individual stations pay the fines not the syndication company. So look at the xposure that Clear channel has if Stern get fined, 6 times what ever the fine is. Ther FCC also states that fines are going be raised by 10 times to prove that they mean business. Stern has made himself and his employers millions by using the public airwaves to say and do things that many feel are purely racist, sexual, and indecent. I have fun hearing some things that go on during the show but many times he goes to the gutter. Making fun of the handicaped, mentally challenged, and many other groups. Some may laugh, as middle school kids do, but it realy hurts people in those groups as he makes it " OK" to act like that. If you were handicaped, mentally challenged or the like you would love to kick his AZZ for this crap. Do you think it's right to make fun of people for things they cannot control? Howard is Jewish. He never breaks the ballz of his own people beacuse he can't without sponsors flipping out. He has been lucky to stay on the air this long. Broadcasting is not a right it's a privllage. I want freedom of speach but this is not what freedom is. You must act responsibly.
