So many things and so little time…….for years I have bitched about the lack of nudity on TV and the hard censorship…..but now all that could be things of the past….why? There is a God!
Fox News is reporting…….
The US Second Circuit Court of Appeals has vacated the $1.21 million worth of fines that the FCC levied against ABC after alleging that the network violated broadcast indecency standards for daring to show actress Charlotte Ross’ naked behind during a 2003 episode of “NYPD Blue.”
When overthrowing the fine, the court cited the FCC’s own declaration that “nudity itself is not per se indecent.” It also reiterated that the FCC’s context-based indecency test is “unconstitutionally vague,” as previously determined by the court when the FCC demanded fines from Fox when profanities were aired during the 2006 Billboard Music Awards.
I seriously doubt that this will give us what all the nay-sayers are warning about…..that is more nudity and such….doubt that this move will improve the quality or content of network TV….but it is a start…..and of course there will be those “sky is failing” folk that think that there will be bare boobs on news programs….but I think little will change….but on second thought….bare boobs on the news could make people more attentive to what is going on around them….if so…I say “show me your t*ts”……(a Mardi gras classic)………
Nothing wrong with nudity – there IS something wrong with the people who see it as a problem, but then we all know that – right?
Right! Nudity is good and it could not hurt ratings since programs live or die by them…..
More seriously, it would be good for children to grow up knowing what the various human “bits” actually do look like in reality without the smutty embarrassment attached to them by damaged adults. It’s sometimes tough to take, but facing up to reality never really hurt anyone.
Stupid people!
So true and very accurate…….idiots can turn anything into smut if they try……personall, I would rather see a naked woman then a murder scene or the autopsy room on CSI……
Absolutely… 😈
A great pair of breasts are far more pleasing than a liver…..
So true…
