Clear Channel pays up

Some new legal news:

The Federal Communications Commission's settlement with Clear Channel Communications is estimated at $1.75 million, according to the source, who requested anonymity in the absence of a formal announcement. That was expected as early as Wednesday.

The deal marks the largest settlement negotiated by the FCC (news - web sites) and a broadcaster, narrowly topping the $1.7 million that Infinity Broadcasting paid in 1995 for indecency violations by Stern, the shock jock whose New York City-based radio show features sexually explicit talk and off-color humor.

I've said this before, people, and I'll say it again. If you don't like what you hear, turn the f-in' knob to a different channel.
