CBS not FINED for Janet Jackson's BREAST Exposure--Court Ruled

You guys seem to stay on top of things--hope this has not been posted before. wink


It's A Great Day For Boobs; CBS

From Glitter Gossip




Remember about a billion years ago when that whole Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction deal happened? Yeah, we'd pretty much forgotten about it too. The U.S. Court of Appeals still remembers though, and they've decided (rightfully) that CBS is not to blame for Justin Timberlake being kind of a dork.

A U.S. appeals court on Monday overturned a decision to fine CBS Corp television stations $550,000 for airing a brief breast flash by pop singer Janet Jackson during the 2004 Super Bowl.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit said the U.S. Federal Communications Commission "arbitrarily and capriciously departed from its prior policy" that exempted fleeting broadcast material from actionable indecency violations.

Suck on that, FCC.

CBS should be fined for "CSI."
