Blue Streak: Swearing, Free Speech and Sexual Harassment
Certain words, said at the wrong time or place, may get a person into a heap of trouble. The laws surrounding freedom of speech do not permit us, for example, to shout out âfireâ in a theater or advocate the immediate and violent overthrow of the government. There are also limits on the time and place where a person can use swear words or language with sexual innuendos or suggestions. Richard Dooling, an attorney and writer living in Nebraska, joined us in June of 1997 to talk about his book, entitled, âBlue Streak: Swearing, Free Speech and Sexual Harassment.â
Richard Dooling recommends âEmotional Brain,â by Joseph La Due.
Originally Broadcast: June 4, 1997
