 board’s impression of "decency" found himself under constant attack in recent years. As a result, Stern left terrestrial radio for the freedom of satellite radio. (Lest the Examiner point to the number of FCC complaints as an indication that Stern’s antics were disfavored by a large number of people, Stern never uttered "fuck" on terrestrial radio, and his "indecent" speech was usually complained of by organized phone banks.)

Interestingly enough, with Stern’s departure, his replacements have seen marked drops in listenership. At the same time, Stern’s move to Sirius Satellite Radio has brought millions of new subscribers to the medium alongside ubiquitous use of the word "fuck." See Exhibit D.

Lest the Examiner begin to believe that Stern, or comedians have a monopoly on the word "fuck" on Satellite Radio, the band Buckcherry recently recorded "Crazy Bitch," which they did not intend to release as a single. However, once the unedited song and its lyrics that include "You're crazy but I like the way you fuck me!" reached XM and Sirius, it became the one of Satellite Radio’s most requested songs. See Exhibit E for the song lyrics.

When it comes to entertainment, we could be accurately described as a "fuck tolerant society." Samuel L. Jackson, Joe Pesci, Robert De Niro, and Al Pacino, are four of America’s most beloved actors, and their gratuitous use of the word "fuck" is hardly a cause of national shame, but these quotes have made these actors iconic. 10
