The FCC affirmed that a radio station may not censor political broadcasts even if material seems libelous and that broadcasters are shielded from damages, though speakers are fully liable for content. A station may refuse broadcasts for any office but, once committed, must enforce only bans on obscene or profane language. The decision followed WHLS Port Huron license renewal and protests from broadcasters.
