That someone like Stern could foul the public airways while lining his pockets and those of his advertisers with millions at the public's expense is detestable. Thank God for Janet Jackson's boob.

My superbowl and my public airwaves are no different than my public park down the street. My children and the children of my neighbors shall not have to tolerate defecation and sexual acts being performed in this public park. It is PUBLIC.

That Stern's decided to move to pay-per-listen is a good thing, at least he'll no longer be crapping in the public pool most trust will be kept to high enough standards that swimming in it would not invite infection.

Most bothersome is that there will be those laughing all the way to the bank, knowing full-well they took advantage of the public trust while no-one was looking. They crapped in the community pool and made tons of money doing it.

If Mr. Stevens wants to introduce any legislation at all, perhaps he could suggest a tax for those who benefit financially by utilizing a public asset, ie. building careers upon the taxpayers who've shouldered the cost of the vast communications systems put in place by their tax dollars and participation making this opportunity for them possible in the first place.

What takes place in the filthy pay-to-listen ponds matters not to me. What takes place in public does.

"Thank God for Janet Jackson's boob. "

Michael Copps, the fanatical democrat at the FCC was responsible for pushing the super bowl fine. Your in bed with Michael Copps if you endorse the fine.
