STOP AND READ, IMPORTANT

[Capture pt]

the fuck is digital spy and if anything this thread being made is just windind up the hype/gossip machine?

[64hz]

I don't understand the OP's opinion on this.

I also dont understand why it is so important

[deamonds]

completely understand some people's views that everyone should apply to the same rules and regulations, it's just disheartening to see people arguing FOR the criticism against Rinse, when they have done so much for the scene & forum you are posting on.

The reason I mentioned Chris Moyles is that the BEEB are never going to get treated with the same force that rinse will, never. Rinse is an ‘urban’ (sick in my mouth) station, and for me represents a whole lot more than just ***step.

Ashley I take your points mate, just thought you would be more FOR the voice of the underground. But hey ho, on second thoughts maybe I am making too much of a big deal on it, but would you rather rinse as it is at the moment? Or just another BLAND breakfast show like heart 106.2

I remember the first legal oneman show asbo was refraining from swearing and then got passed a message that said there where just 2 words he wasn't aloud to say.

[Pada]

oh well since rinse has turned commercial now, that's how it's got to be

It's community not commercial.

[deamonds]

by the way, they have obviously done fuck all for this forum, but you knew what i meant, what they have done for ***step is what i meant

[deamonds]

yes pada, was going to make that point also, capo can you get rinse on your FM dial where you are? Because until they reach nationwide I don’t think they should be scrutinized as much as the bigger stations. My opinion.

[hasezwei]

i dont know whats irony and whats not in that thread.
seriously, what is wrong with those people? especially the guy who says it shouldnt be allowed to compare a soldier to a murderer on radio, it's scratchs breakfast show ffs not news or anything.

Radio in the UK is regulated by a company called Ofcom.

If you allow one radio to talk about the differences between someone shooting someone in a war vs someone else shooting "400 bullets" on the streets, then you have to allow that rule for everyone else.

Same with swearing. Sometimes people do swear by mistake, but they shrug it off and apologies. Swearing like it's nothing (like I do) is when people start to complain.

wait, this isn't allowed on other stations? to express personal opinions using provocative metaphors?

wow. just wow.
as for the swearing, well it's rinse and rinse without swearing wouldn't be rinse in my opinion. of course the point that they cant allow only one station to do it is valid, however i doubt other stations would even want to inlcude that as their target audience probably won't like it.
or they could just send "warning, rinse fm contains strong language. if you think you might be offended, fuck off" in between shows, would break the monotony of hearing the same 2 ads on repeat for 5 minutes (wonder if they still do that, haven't listened for a while now)

i would say its more the point that you cant be suprised if you talk about that and someone complains, whether or not youre allowed to or not.

it's crap that they're getting scrutinised but if you're going to go legal then you have to take the good with the bad. you can't just expect to carry on saying whatever the fuck you want and not expecting people to complain about it. swearing at 10 in the morning on a community station is clearly not on

i just hope that rinse sorts itself out and the music stays good

that went right over your head didn't it

[capo ultra]

eh? how did YOU miss that?

edit: just to clear up confusion over my terrible joke

You may say 'oh well since rinse has turned commercial now, that's how it's got to be'

oh well since rinse has turned commercial now, that's how it's got to be

[deamonds]

sorry didn't see that

hur hur

[capo ultra]

sorry it was a really crap joke Imma get my coat

[noam]

Annoying thread title - fuck off.

Censorship needs to go fuck itself.



pope cock jihad

hahahhahahahaha yes.

You can't expect people not to call someone out for something they don't agree with just because they've agreed with something that person has said previously.

If my mate bought me a pint then turned around and punched a guy in the face for no reason I wouldn't just shrug and sip it.

I don't have a problem with swearing but if the licence says they can't and they want to keep it then they shouldn't, it's just a compromise they'll have to make.

[deamonds]

But it isnt just the swearing thing they have had a go at him/them at, they also complained about him using a 'frail chinese lady' (lol) as a recurring character on his shows.

By the way your comparison makes no sense.

Be FOR what? Swearing at 9am?

I don't listen to Rinse or any other radio, if I do, it'll be for Distance's show which is once every two weeks or Skrenga and Mistajam on BBC.

I listen to Benji B but iPlayer only.

The comparison does make sense, you're suggesting people should automatically side with Rinse based on their past actions. But people should make up their mind based on the current situation and not be bias.

that went right over your head didn't it
