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'").
