1. Nope...and thank FCC deregulation for that...

Back in the late 70's, when I started doing radio work, you needed a full license (even a test was issued)...during Reagan's era, they got rid of this, figuring that the idiots they needed to prop up to puke out the right wing spew aren't smart enuff to pass the test...

So, nope...

3. Herr Limbaugh

Because Herr Limbaugh is an "independent contractor" there is no moral
clause in his employment. Herr Limbaugh is above the law........because
he is loyal to the Fatherland....and the leader......therefore he will not
be prosectuted for OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE or posession of massive
amounts of opiate drugs. Its nice to be above the law......Bush was when
he went AWOL and Bush is for lying about the law.
Its good to be rich and connected.......this is payback for the loyalty of
Herr Limbaugh

4. Still a license requirement

I used to work in radio, and back in the 90s, there was still a license requirement.

No test, though.

Just send $45 to Uncle Sam, and you're licensed by the FCC.

5. I worked as a volunteer dj in college in the 80's

and I was required to have a license (for 1 one hour a week show).
