Deregulation has changed the radio and recording industry greatly over time. It took government control out of these two industries. This allowed a lot more freedom to artists and the radio and recording companies themselves. Talk shows on the radio became a bit more risque. With this said, the FCC still puts certain restrains on vulgarities and things that cross the limits on public radio. However, radio is still much different today then it was back in the day. Recording industries have changed a ton as well. Music years ago had many various restrictions. Now days, artists essentially have the freedom to write and record absolutely anything they want. The FCC does require an artist to put a parental advisory sticker on an album if it includes certain vulgar words or phrases.
Though there are still some restrictions on music and radio today, they still have loads of artistic freedom and music has gotten more and more boundary-pushing over the years, showing the progression of modern culture. Much of this is due to deregulation. If it wasn’t for that then the government would still be controlling music and radio, which would prove to allow a lot less artistic and commercial freedom.
