Did Anyone Else Catch CNN's "Janet" Moment today?
They were showing a special report from Afghanistan and had some footage on that was shot by soldiers in the middle of a raid.

Unbleeped and in all its glory, you had the chance to hear a soldier yelling "fucking" (I forget the context) during the middle of the footage.

I wonder if CNN will get fined by showing bleepworthy content provided by the army itself?

Nahhhh....

3. Not for long
One of the new items on the FCC's agenda is to look into cable programing too.

5. Maybe it's a code word for the operation?
Operation Fucking Exploiter? Operation Fucking Youpeople?

Something like that. Or maybe because it was used as an adjective. Or maybe not.
