Baylor station censors hard rock for softer format in Waco
KWBU in Waco ordered a format change to soft rock after a parent complained the station’s hard rock lyrics were obscene. Discs jockeys paid $300 for soft rock albums by Boz Scaggs and others while administrators cite censorship and a prior profanity issue. The station serves all of Waco from 6.30 am to 2 am, with officials saying listener complaints drive the shift to reduce offense.
