WUKY general manager
Tom Godell has a problem with the language that's sometimes used on
Garrison Keillor's five-minute
"The Writer's Almanac" public radio pieces. "It's not that he’s behaving like
Howard Stern, but the FCC has been so inconsistent, we don’t know where we stand," says Godell. "We could no longer risk a fine." WUKY has axed "Almanac." MORE PUBLIC RADIO:

UPDATE: KEILLOR RETURNS TO WUKY: The cancellation was reversed after listeners flooded the station's phone lines and e-mail inboxes. "It's been an impressive response," says Godell. (Read Keillor's
