There were a couple of articles about Jack Thompson, the Florida
attorney who opposes "mature" video games like Grand Theft Auto and
also fought to get Howard Stern off the air. There was a disciplinary
hearing held earlier this week, which he walked out on because he
didn't think the judge had the authority to hear his case. He then
filed a 14-page objection, "Thompson's Formal Objection to June 4
Sanctions Hearing.", which mentioned Howard several times, including
this excerpt:

==========

When I wrote a letter to Al Cardenas, calling him to be ashamed of
what he and his law firm have done to harm children by fronting for
the Howard Stern Show, I was acting upon the Scriptural template of
John the Baptist confronting Herod about marrying his brother’s wife
and the example of Jesus confronting the Pharisees, who called them
"hypocrites, whited sepulchers, and vipers." Jesus was not a silent
doormat and neither am I.
