// Local Radio Station Banning Offensive Music  // // By: David Kenney  // ~Don Imus was fired for comments made about the Rutger’s basketball team ~Since then radio stations have been taking a closer look at their programming ~WRBJ-FM “Hot 97.7” a hip-hop station in Jackson is trying to eliminate anything that would be offensive to listeners (whether it is violent, sexist, or racist) ~The station’s entire playlist will be re-vamped ~every song’s lyrics will be examined to decide if it is acceptable ~Anything deemed too hard or offensive will be banned ~listeners probably won’t notice a drastic change in what they hear because music is already censored for offensive words, but now content is an issue
