Mark, there is apparently a different set of rules and standards. If you 
are AM radio and say something stupid, intollerant and downright nasty, 
everyone is after you scalp. But if you say something stupid, 
intollerant and downright nasty on Satellite, you get millions of 
dollars for delivering 1/10 of the audience you did when you were on 
terrestrial radio. Then there's TV.........a body part at the Superbowl 
is a scandal. A body part on Cable is "art".
