FCCrap

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) fined Howard Stern for "graphic and explicit" language over public radio waves. The FCC included a transcript of the offending program, which includes a reference to the "David Copperfield" (see page 2 and 3 of the transcript).

Here's the excerpt:

Male Cast Member (MV): I heard a new one the other day. It was "David Copperfield."

Howard Stern (HS)/Robin Quivers (RQ): Right.

MV: So do you want me to explain it, since I... When you're goin' like a dog

HS: Right

MV: ...and your about to finish and instead you don't finish, you spit on her and then you turn around and when she turns her face around then you go... So it's kind of like an illusion...
HS: Right.

MV: to David Copperfield.

RQ: Sleight of hand.

HS: Misdirection.

MV: Classic misdirection.

HS: You trick her....


Good to see the tools of our art form being put to good use!
