Deregulation of radio and recording industry

Deregulation has brought a new era upon the radio and the recording industry. Although it is not completely free there is a lot more freedom then there used to be. For instance musicians, radio djs, and talk show hosts were to speak within fine lines of regulations and one step over the line would bring a hail storm of fines and warnings from the government. Now things are different, people are allowed to speak and write what they want, with certain limitations of course. Instead of complete censorship people are warned what listening to a particular program or music entails. They are warned that what they are listening to may be found offensive to certain listeners and not approved by all. The deregulation has made for a more liberal listening world. No longer do listeners and speakers have to deal with the confines of regulated media.
