And what I wrote was this ...
What N9OGL and K1MAN contend is "legal" broadcasting is defined by

the
FCC in in Section 97.3 as "an Information Bulletin." It is a

message
directed "only to amateur operators" and consists "solely of

subject
matter of direct interest to the amateur service. The control

operator
of the station transmitting an information bulletin is responsible

for
determining that the subject matter is of direct interest to the
amateur service."

To label information bulletins as "broadcasting" is just wrong. The
responsibility of the control operator to determine appropriate

subject
matter for one-way communications should not be construed to allow
one-way commentary on non-radio issues (such as baseball) just

because
radio operators are interested in baseball.


If it is labeled "broad" -cast, it is intended for a _wider_ audience,
defined by the FCC as the general population. If it is information
_narrowly_ aimed at radio hams, then it is "Information Bulletin" and
should be labeled as such.

That is a distinction with a difference.
