I witnessed this morning one of the greatest examples of free speech I have seen in a long time...
I was listening to the radio station Z100 (100.3) this morning. They're usually a decent radio station. They started playing a crappy song so I decided to flip over to 101.1 where Howard Stern talks in the morning. I'm not a big fan of Howard, but when Z100 sucks bad enough sometimes I switch over out of curiosity.
Anyway, the first thing I hear from Howard Stern's show is (verbatim) "F you, F you, F you..."
Then, Howard begins to play a song to the tune of The Beatle's "Hey Jude."
"F you, you mother (beep)-er..."
Howard interrupted the song by mentioning that when he goes to Sattelite Radio he's going to play this song in "honor" of Clear Channel Radio (where he currently works, mind you). "Only, on Sattelite Radio I won't beep out anything," he said.
Now there aren't many nations you can do this very thing without worrying about losing your job (or, in some places, your life). Gotta love America huh?
