But the market does support it. Stern is one of the top rated everywhere. Not many women relate to him at all, but most or many guys do like tits and ass jokes and commentary. I really don't listen to him much at all anymore, but there was a time when it was so fresh and new that it was hilariously so politically incorrect. Advertisers who sell products to 18-49 year old males have quite an audience with him.
I say judgement of tastelessness is an indiviual thing. Where to draw the line is way too vague. I do not feel that I need to be protected by the FCC. If I don't like it, I just won't listen. If enough don't listen, it will go away. But if enough do, it should be there as a choice.
