I am glad they are making an effort....I get rather tired of listening to the blatent disregard for the folks that it offends....like old school folks....back in the day if we said "fart" we had our rear ends whupped....but today....some words just fly on by and they are supposed to just let it....I say lets clean it up....my children do not need to hear it anymore then any other child in my eyes....LONG LIVE THE CLEAN ACT!!!!! :P

I think its a good idea. It must be frustrating though, when someone elses stupidity wipes YOU out of a race/money/ponits.

I think it's stupid as hell... Little E is right... your are tuning into THEIR office... don't tune in if you don't like what you hear, it's YOUR choice. We limit something if people CHOOSE whether or not to listen...? There have been slip up's right live on the air with swearing... I hate that EVERYTHING needs to be censored. Blantant swearing yes, nudity, yes... but this is something you have to CHOOSE to buy and tune into. Put a warning on it then... [:@]

the radio talk between pits and the racer....that should not be affected...but if you screw up and cuss in an interview....i think you should be nailed with fines....

The trouble is the F.C.C. rules the airwaves and you have to play by their rules or face a possible fine and/or prison. It's the same story in other countries as well, we're not unique.
