The
FCC
ruling
still
stands
The United States Supreme Court in a little publicized decision last week refused to
review the controversial 1971 anti drug policy of the Federal Communications Commission.
The FCC policy requires that stations must screen all music that is to be played on the air for
possible records which might violate the drug lyric order. The order states that stations may
not play records which enhance or promote drug usage. The Supreme Court ruled 7 2 against a
review of the policy. Justices William O. Douglas and William J. Brennan Jr. the only
dissenters.
The suit was brought by the Yale Broadcasting Company, which claimed that the com
mission policy violated the free speech amendment under the constitution, and censored
broadcaster programming by implied threats against licensees for airing music which could
be interpreted as promoting use of illicit drugs. Justice Douglas issued a scathing blast
against the court majority for permitting the FCC to demand censorship of broadcast
programming by licencees Douglas said it was equivalent to allowing newspapers to censor
the words of their reporters: "Under our system the government is not to decide what
messages, spoken or in music, are of the proper 'social value' to reach the people."
Attorneys for the Yale Broadcasting Company cited cases of hit songs being wisked off the
air out of broadcasters' fear of losing their licenses. Examples of songs that were taken off the
air were Bob Dylan's "Mr. Tamborine Man," "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" by the
Beatles and "Puff The Magic Dragon" by Peter, Paul and Mary.
The irony of the policy is that many songs which condemned the use of drugs in their lyrics
were also taken off the air, including some songs that were made in cooperation with the
government's own anti-drug use program
And the sky gets darker, and darker

Who The new Alice Cooper album, "Muscle of Love," features Liza Minnelli, Ronnie Spector
Iwife of Big Phil) and an original member of the Ronettes, the Pointer Sisters and Labelle.
Tracks include "The Man With the Golden Gun," "Women Machine," "Hard Hearted Alice"
and "Big Apple Dreamin'"...Joe Cocker is back in the studio and will record with Nicky
Hopkins and Jim Price Cat Stevens will appear on ABC-TV's "In Concert" next Friday
evening As far as I can tell, he will do the entire 90 minutes, except for a few short ap
pearances by special guests. It will be the end of Josha White's productions for ABC. White
was originally a stage manager for the Fillmore East and has done an outstanding job for
ABC but was forced out by bubblegummer Dick Clark. Clark, it seems, wields a big hand in
the decision making process at ABC. What he wants he gets. So from nowon, you will see Dick
Clark as the executive producer of "In Concert." It's really too bad, because the shows he has
done so far have been far below White's in quality. But I guess quality isn't what ABC is
looking tor And don't forget the David Bowie special later this month on "Midnight
Special" The Rolling Stones' "Goats Head Soup" still holds down the number one slot on the
Billboard "Top LP's" chart. Elton John's "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" is number two, with
the Allman Brothers' "Brothers and Sisters" at number three. The top single this week is
"Midnight Train to Georgia" by Gladys Knight and the Pips, and the Stones "Angie" is
number two The hottest new album of the week is Traffic's "On the Road"...If you miss
tonight's performance by the Paul Winter Consort, you will really miss something. They are
an unbelievably fine musical organization...Wishbone Ash and the Electric Light Orchestra
play the Salem Armory next Saturday night...Rare Earth and Z.Z. Top at the Coliseum Friday
night and the Beach Boys play the Paramount Northwest Saturday evening...And don't forget
Leo Kottke on November 14 and 15 here in Eugene. Tickets for the Kottke show should go
pretty fast, so don't get closed out.
