[opendtv] Re: Garrison Keillor: Talk about obscenity

I probably should have provided a link to the Bono decision, which 
indicates that not even newscasts are immune (even as it notes that a 
newscast with prerecorded material that included "'repetitious'' use of 
the 'F-Word' in a recording of a wiretap of an organized crime figure 
broadcast on a newscast [was] not indecent because, inter alia, use of 
the word was not gratuitous but rather 'was an integral part of a bona 
fide news story'").

TTFN,
