    Do stations licensed by the BCI have measures in place to prevent swearing on live transmissions such as call in shows etc etc? Do they have a delay in place?

    It's presenters swearing on air that the BCI should be concerned about. (i105-107 :rolleyes:)

    I don't think they're used much these days. Maybe if libel is an issue.

    You might get a better answer on the Radio forum.

    its funny that swearing is censored by boards'ie and yet it is being pumped out over the airwaves on a daily basis by newstalk in a shameless bid to appeal to the lowest common denominator.

    True. It's just I can think of many more 'phone in shows on radio than on TV.

    Come to think of it, I can't think of any on Irish TV. Prolly 'cos I don't watch TV3 or RTE:D
