Should radio programs be censored?

 

 

People are always longing to be speak their minds, and in our great nation, they have a Constitutional right to do so. One popular means that has been used for decades is radio. Anybody can choose to listen to any broadcast or radio transmission they like if they have the proper equipment. Radio also allows people to enjoy their favorite types of music or sports event without having to spend the cash to see events live or buy many CDs. The radio has made many people's live easier and more comfortable, but in recent years there has been some protest about what should and should not be allowed to be broadcasted on the air. Even though the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has is partially regulating broadcasts already, people are still worried that radio broadcasters are going beyond their legal bounds of free speech and possibly corrupting the youth of today, but some say free speech is free speech. So the ethical dilemma arises about what should be done over this bitter battle.
