Why Not Just Leave Janet Alone!!!

November 24th 2008

 

Why not just leave Janet alone! The FCC is taking the case of Janet Jackson’s infamous Super Bowl “wardrobe malfunction” to the nation’s highest court. According to “Variety,” the agency has asked the Supreme Court to review an earlier ruling against it.  The FCC originally levied a 550-thousand-dollar fine against CBS because Jackson’s right breast was seen briefly at the end of her Super Bowl 38 halftime show.  CBS won a lower-court appeal earlier this year, with the court deciding the FCC, quote, “arbitrarily and capriciously departed from its prior policy” which exempted what is describes as fleeting broadcast material from actionable violations of decency rules. 

 

The Supreme Court is currently hearing an appeal brought by the FCC regarding a lower-court decision in favor of Fox. The network challenged the FCC’s 2004 change in its treatment of “fleeting expletives.”  The FCC has asked the Supreme Court to wait on the CBS case until it makes a decision in the Fox case. I really think that this is just the people at the top trying to bring her down, and I dont understand what was the big dill you tell me?
