A complaint was received after a book extract containing explicit content was read outside the regulated watershed period by Rian van Heerden on Jacaranda FM. The station’s targeted audience at all times and particularly at the airing of the Scenic Drive are mainly adults. This is an extenuating factor. Provisions of Clause 6(1) and (11) read with Clause 12(1) and (2) of the Broadcasting Code are thus not infringed.
