There is a very good opinion piece by Jeff Jarvis on the Stern/FCC thing (it was in today's Newark Star Ledger, I'm sure it was in other papers as well).

One of the most striking things about this stuff is that of 23 complaints about a particular TV show referenced in the article, 21 of them came from the Parents Television Council. There were grand total of 2 from the rest of America. Yet the FCC fined the station that carried that show (FOX) $1.2 million (FOX is fighting the fine). Isn't it ridiculous that this one group, which one could reasonably argue is far from the mainstream of America, is allowed to have so much power? Shouldn't there be some requirement that, before a TV or radio station is fined for indecency, there be complaints from a broad cross-section of American society?
