Re: Lenny?

I think we (as a society) will always make room for Lenny Bruce. It's a matter of finding balance between freedom of speech and freedom from meanness. It's not so much the vulgarity that people object to in shock jocks, its their meanness. There are far more vulgar acts around which appear to be in little danger of being cancelled or censored (South Park, for example).
