This weekend I was watching Book TV on CSPAN and I happened to catch Jon Stewart and some of the others from the Daily Show. They were promoting their book, America. And I thought it was interesting that FCC rules about inappropriate language did not apply to them. They said the "F Word" several times, along with some other words that they shouldn't say on tv. I wonder why the rules don't apply to CSPAN. The only thing I could think of was that as it was Book TV, banning certain words would be a form of censorship. Still, the rules should apply to everyone equally. Either they all get to say the "F Word" or no one does.
