HUNTSVILLE, Alabama -- Oakwood University is investigating how its Christian campus radio station broadcast profanities over the air Saturday night.

Hint: if you're a university, it's probably not a good idea to leave network security "in God's hands" (ie, no real protection). I'm surprised something like an automation system could be accessed by someone outside the local intranet, unless it was an inside job.
I wonder how the FCC would feel about the excuse of "we were hacked" on a plea to dismiss a fine?
