...that had kicked up more fuss than anything in radio since Mae West. In permitting stations to sell advertising time on their short-wave broadcasts to Latin America and other foreign parts, FCC inserted a provision that the programs "shall render only an international broadcast service which will reflect the culture of this country and which will promote international good will, understanding and cooperation."
