<DIV>Dear CMA colleagues,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have a very enthusiastic young chap who wishes to do a Hip Hop show. I
have zero knowledge of this particular genre, other than the music often talks
about rascist, violent and sexual matters.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Unfortunately, this volunteer cannot get hold of radio edits for all songs,
so occasionally, lyrics that may cause offence may be broadcast. I called
OFCOM this morning to ask if this was acceptable, if we put out disclaimers
along the lines of "Warning: The following music contains lyrics that may cause
offence - if you are easily offended this programme isn't for you." The answer
was unclear from OFCOM - but put bluntly - that disclaimer would not serve as a
protection should a listener complain.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So I wondered what everybody else does? Any help or guidance on this matter
will be gratefully received.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks in advance</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
