Wrong.

Part 97.305(a)(b)
(a) Except as specified elsewhere in this part, an amateur
station may transmit a CW emission on any frequency authorized
to the control operator.

UH - he wasn't transmitting a CW emission, he was throwing a dead
carrier - can you read?

(b) A station may transmit a test emission on any frequency
authorized to the control operator for brief periods for
experimental purposes,...
YES - Brief Periods! 10 minutes is not a brief period!

Actually, you're half right. Much of what I hear on the air is
seriously lacking in content and only a little better than not saying
anything.

Sorry Jeff, but you just shot yourself in the foot!
If you transmit a dead carrier and you don't say anything you are in
fact violating the Part 97!

Please link to the FCC Rules and Regulations that specify such. Thanks.
