CBS Fined 1/2 MIL. for Janet Jackson's Errant Right Mammary

WASHINGTON(AP) Federal regulators on Wednesday fined CBS a record $550,000 for Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction," which exposed the singer's breast during this year's Super Bowl halftime show.

The Federal Communications Commission voted unanimously to slap each of the 20 CBS-owned television stations with the maximum indecency penalty of $27,500. The total penalty of $550,000 is the largest fine levied against a television broadcaster. Most of the FCC's bigger fines have been against radio stations.

The commission decided not to fine CBS' more than 200 affiliate stations, which also aired the show but are not owned by the network's parent company, Viacom.

6. Well, Fox must have been fined billions for showing porn pics!

"I was watching Fox News, during Greta Van Susteren, during which a promo for
Your World with Neil Cavuto came on about protecting kids from porn.
Well this is what I saw, a poor attempt to censor porn!!

They clearly blur the tit and apparently miss the big penis and penetration..."

7. Ah, Martha and Janet, two diabolical females, out to destroy the

pristine purity of the Bush Empire where Ken Lay,L.Kozlowski, Bernie Ebbers make money the old fashioned way ( ripping off others) and
Roger Stone, Neil Bush and Jimmy Swaggart enrich our family values.
Leave it to the intrepid fighters of the GOP against Evil to make the world safe for us. We are in good hands,y'heah?

pissed at the way it was done. Shit, it was a stupid nipple for goodness sakes but it was shown by a guy ripping her bra off (all in fun you know)! THAT pisses me off.
