This was sent to me today. Thought you all would like to see it.

There was a legal question in Velonews to a laywer that asked
(paraphrasing), "Can they say that?!"

http://www.velonews.com/news/fea/5058.0.html

The last paragraph sums up the legal argument laid out in the answer to the
above question:

"Today's "shock jocks" may sound like troglodytes, but most of them know
their first amendment law better than most lawyers. If you were to listen
to a tape recording of the offending shows, you would probably never hear a
single sentence or string of sentences that contains the three essential
Brandenburg elements:

1) The speech must direct, not just advocate, unlawful conduct. (Do it! Go
now-do it!)
2) The unlawful conduct must be imminent or at a certain time in the
future, not an indefinite future. (Go out NOW! Today, this morning, on your
way to work, DO IT!)
3) The speech must be likely to produce lawless action."
