Company gets two very questionable TV station call letters (K--T and KW--)
Various -- Drudgereport, etc

Posted on 07/27/2007 2:18:28 PM PDT by topher

A Maui TV station that has not been completed has been given a very VULGAR TV CALL SIGN -- K--T.

The same company that owns the Maui, Hawaii, TV station, was also given a second call sign that is an acronym used with vulgarity -- KWT-.

The company is asking the FCC to assign different call letters to the two TV stations.


TOPICS:
KEYWORDS: fcc; samecompany; vulgar; whatthe
In the case of the vulgar word, K--T, the FCC should never have assigned that. The other Call Sign is somewhat forgiveable, as the acronym is not that obvious except it is now commonly used on the Internet.

This news article might cause some vulgarity on Freerepublic, so I am posting it this way for now.

I ask Freerepublic posters not to post the station call signs in total because of the implied vulgarity even with the case of the acronym...

I hope not. I really don't what kids to see stuff like this...

The KWTC is okay, but the only one they might look up.

Remember kids still have the ability to read the internet...

For example, maybe you have never heard of fouled up beyond repair. But that is because some people cannot spell fouled up...
