Rich responded: > At most, this will show that the US Constitution doesn't protect freedom > of speech. Again, it depends on how you define freedom of speech. At lawguru.com, I asked if protection of obscenity is included in the protection of freedom of speech. Whether it *should* be or not is a whole different discussion. Do I think the whole Janet Jackson thing was blown way out of proportion? Yep. Do I think Howard Stern's show being pulled from some stations is a vast over-reaction? You bet. Do I think the use of obscene language is constitutionally protected? No, but we'll see in a couple of weeks if any lawyers agree with me.
