(Fuck the Parents Television Council)
A Federal court decided today the FCC has no constitutional authority to abrogate the First Amendment in its pursuit of damages for “indecent” language aired during live broadcasts.
Frankly, this doesn’t mean a thing to the FCC. Why should they spend their time policing the language uttered on TV when so quickly the issues of the 20th century are being obviated by the internet?
But it does deal a large blow to the Parents Television Council, whose cause celebre has been to champion the role of FCC gadfly – being the main source of complaints for the FCC.
