the fcc has refused to make a specific list of taboo words or subjects. they had also recently exponentially increased the penalty for crossing the line which they stubbornly ill define. (see link in third comment in this thread) kenny has made a radio career of messing with that territory and has had a couple of time outs already. ken has the unenviable job of having to both support the creativity of the dj's and protect the station from the consequences of fcc complaints which recently had been boosted to the point of possibly mortally crippling a small not for profit station. so in the past couple of years Ken has had to err on the careful side. he knows it and we knows it. them talking about it yesterday was a sign that sanity might possibly again be in reach.
here is some more of the FCC and station's history from beware the blog posts.
