Anti-war Songs Banned by Commercial Radio Giant by Xochitl 11:57am Mon Sep 17 '01 (Modified on 3:25am Tue Sep 18 '01)
Fiercely monopolistic media conglomerate Clear Channel, which controls an astonishing 1,170 commercial radio stations in the US (plus some 240 elsewhere), has directed its stations to avoid playing a list of some 150 "lyrically questionable" songs. Prominently included in the banned list are ant-war songs such as "Knockin' On Heaven's Door," "Eve of Destruction," "Blowin' in the Wind" and "99 Luftballoons."
The list would be comical if the private company (widely accused of workplace abuses and unethical business practices). See http://www.salon.com/ent/feature/2001/05/30/clear_channel_employees/index.html did not hold such broad influence over broadcasting in this country. Other items deemed unacceptable by Clear Channel demonstrate a remarkable breadth of apparent boardroom hysteria... Cat Stevens' recordings of "Peace Train" and "Morning Has Broken" made the list (perhaps due to the singer's conversion to Islam?), as did "War (What is it Good For)," "St. Elmo's Fire" and, inexplicably, "Bridge Over Troubled Water." (via John Norfolk; appended: list like he following one)
Clear Channel Radio Network bans 150 songs
Call the local competition, if they still have any. get them to play from the banned list, and get their listeners to call across town and request "Imagine" Ben Masel, http://www.tds.net
