g quite an amount of times. Despite being liberal I found this grossly offensive. I just couldn't believe what I was hearing. Sick people the lot of them in rte. Also this is not internationally acceptable. Just another example of a jumped up minority. Suppose all the real talent has left this wilderness.

People curse a lot in real life. There is no direct concept of a 'watershed' on radio.

You are seriously overestimating the value of your post with the idea of it provoking people.
