Re: Complaint Filed With FCC Over Opie & Anthony's LatestStunt



>>the FCC is selective about when they take enforcement actions.<<

Exactly how are they being selective?  My problem is that they're not being selective enough...witness the recent fine imposed for indecent programming without any submission of proof on the part of the complainant.

>>Broadcasters have limited First Amendment rights, as
you know.  We wouldn't be talking about this at all if
that wasn't the case.<<

The Fairness Doctrine and other such restrictions on content were thrown out precisely because they infringed on broadcasters' First Amendment rights.
