Do you really believe Republican committee member, Heather Wilson when she says she's so strict, she had to give her 4th grade son "special permission" to watch the superbowl?

lying bitch.

I'd bet a good buck she didn't even no what the hell happened when she was watching live. But ohhh...when she saw that shit on the news, thats when she went crazy.

"How dare they! "

It's times like this I wish those guys were still on the air. They'd have torn this apart for the better part of 4 hours.

Nevermind the fact that he's DEAD ON.

People don't want to take resonsibility for ANYTHING now. Not what they see on TV, and not what they hear on radio. It's not like we all don't have a choice in the matter. If you don't like it, don't tune in. It's really that simple.


I along with many others find the, Harpo Winfrey show offensive. Maybe I should lodge a complaint, and they'll take her off the air. Or at the very least, hold a godamn congressional hearing over it.

Uptight cunts like that should have their tongues cut out to prevent them from spewing lies.

If you're not a fan of the show, you probably don't even what \"balloon knot\" is code for. So how would these complainers even know what to complain about? Nothing graphic or explicit was depicted over the air. Ant was right in saying the FCC simply jumped the gun on second-hand accounts and speculation, and then had no choice but to follow through on their promise to punish the perceived \"offense\".

Amongst all of my friends who called themselves "fans" of the show, I was the only one that became active on the boards after the cancellation, making CDs for others and defending the boys at any bar I happen to be in during the weeks after the cancellation; I cited this very same arguement that you just posted Brain (and the very same point Anthony brilliantly drove home):


The broadcast was NOT indecent by FCC standards in any way, shape, or form.


Its great to see that after all this time, my point (which was formed as the reports came flooding in regarding the cancellation) is still as solid today as it was on the immediate days after 8/22/02.

And its frustrating as fuck to realize that we all lost great radio these last (almost) 2 years over HERESY and secondhand (and utterly irresponsible) reporting.

Soon enough, we'll all be able to hear the boys go off on a plethora of corksuckers and sononmabatches like the FCC & the Catholic League.


I can't wait.

No, we lost great radio because O&A treated St. Pats as a New York landmark and not a religious structure. The first S4S, management removed St. Pats from the list.

&lt;center&gt;Boy the way Glen Miller played,
songs that made the hit parade,
guys like us we had it made,
those were the days,
and you know where you were then,
girls were girls and men were men,
mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again,
didn't need no welfare states
everybody pulled his weight,
gee our old Lasalle ran great,
those were the days!&lt;/center&gt;

I don't think I implied that the boys should have gotten away scot-free.

There should have been a 2-week or so suspension without pay, at worst. Of course they crossed the line that day but was that line the worst one they've ever EVER crossed?

I submit that it is not.

Thus, this almost-2-year-long hiatus was unnecessary. Infinity first buckles under FCC pressure and cancels the show but then later on, "respectfully declines" to pay the fine because they decide to listen to the actual broadcast (which is what I believe FCC fines are based on, not the opinion of the Catholic League) and realize that holy shit, there was no "play by play account of a sexual act", etc.

Infinity should have realized from the outset that the broadcast was not indecent enough to warrant revocation, fully aware that the FCC didn't have a leg to stand on when it came to revoking their license.

Basically, Infinity should have told the FCC to fuck off in the first place.


Or am I missing something?
