Gross Indecency: The Three Trials of Oscar Wilde
By: Moises Kaufman
List Price: $7.50
Amazon Price: $5.25

CUSTOMER REVIEW:
Moises Kaufman will be a great name in theater history
I have been lucky enough to share the initiation of Mr. Kaufman career in theater in Venezuela, have seen Gross Indecency both in New York and London several times, and have read the play, which is masterfully built. This is a unique experience, both read and seen, and believe me, Mr. Kaufman will be remembered in the future as one of the great names of theater of our time. This may sound as an exaggeration, but if you are someone who is looking for trends in theater, great acting, the influence of Brecht in new generations, never forget this author and director.

Dirty Discourse: Sex and Indecency in Broadcasting
By: Robert L. Hilliard
List Price: $30.95
Amazon Price: $24.76

Product Description
Changes in American society, the pluralistic nature of its citizens, and its geographic preclude a common definition of what is indecent, profane, or obscene. What may appear to be "dirty discourse" to some may be considered to be laudable satire to others. Renowned media scholars and authors Robert Hilliard and Michael Keith examine the blue side of the airways in "Dirty Discourse: Sex and Indecency in Broadcasting".This first-ever analysis of the history and nature of off-color program content explores the treatment of once-forbidden topics in the electronic media, investigating the beliefs, attitudes and actions of those who present such material, those who condemn it, and those who defend it. Written from a social and cultural perspective, "Dirty Discourse" concentrates on the means of greatest distribution - radio, with its phenomenal growth of 'shock jocks' and rap music lyrics, and provides coverage of television and the Internet. The book shows how and why broadcasting has evolved from the ribald antics of the Roaring 20's to today's streaming cybersex, contrasting the standards and actions of the FCC v. the First Amendment amidst the over-the-air and in-the-court battles of over-the-top radio. It examines political pressures and legal considerations, including Supreme Court decisions, and efforts to protect children from media smut.

The Bush-appointed FCC, which controls US radio and TV licenses, decided to try destroying still more of Janet Jackson's singing career. The agency asked an appeals court to bless its ruling "in determining that the most widely viewed broadcast of public nudity in television history fell within the federal prohibitions on broadcast indecency."

Let's wrap up the position preview with wide receivers and the overall offense.
