Broadcast Standards Dept: Or . . . a pretty awesome idea?, according to Calgary Herald. Now the Canadian Radiotelevision and Telecommunications Commission i. e., "those wordier bureaucratic d-bags" has weighed in on the matter, asking for the ban to be lifted because of the overwhelming public backlash and because it "created uncertainty for private radio stations across the country." Revisionism? Censorship? Political correctness run amok? Much hand-wringing, posturing and self-promotion "KBBA -- all Money For Nothing, all the time! Or at least until our ratings improve enough that we can play something recorded in the past two decades . . ." has gone on in the days following the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council i. e., "those bureaucratic d-bags" placed a ban on Dire Straits' 1985 hit for non-bundle-of-sticks use of the word " faggot." As
reported in the news.
@t private radio stations, canadian broadcast standards council
