Why the fark is this such a big deal?!?

I don't want to investigate them any more. Maybe 20 years ago...

Oh Hell, I'd be quite happy giving her 5 full minutes of instantly forgettable loving.

Keywork99: Why the fark is this such a big deal?!?

Because the midwest apparently thinks something fairly lewd and happened over 5 years ago has the potential to corrupt their youth.

Good god. Boobs won't hurt you, no matter how much jeebus hates them

never forget

It's this ultra-religious, fear your sexuality mentality that is drilled into these crazy church people from day one. Get over yourselves already.

What a bunch of boobs.

Yeah, the Midwest has been the problem area in this country. The South and the coasts have been examples of calm rational thought.

/Rolls eyes.

Isn't our gov't, like everyone else, broke? Unless this "investigation" is either zero-cost or expected to turn a profit, I say we've got better things to do. (Or fine CBS 100 trillion dollars and save the economy, but don't then bail them out for that.)

Fark that shiat. That's one of the reasons I love living in Germany. They don't give two shiats about showing boobies on TV. Hell you see more boobs on regular German network TV on any given afternoon. And none of this blurring out the nips either.

And they show porn after 9:00 PM.

I live in the Midwest... I had no problem with it. I thought it was hilarious. So don't lump me in with the Midwest hate please :)

Yay so glad these people didn't die out with the repeal of prohibition. Stupid purists ruining fun for everyone.

Blame the FRC (Farking Retard Council) (new window)

Comment in haiku:

Stupid, stupid, dumb
Dammit, FCC is dumb
Stupid, stupid, dumb

and it wasn't even a very good boob
below average

Mugato: My God. Countries in Europe have boobies in they're TV commercials. It's embarrassing (for me as an American).

You know what's embarrassing to me (as an Amercian)? That you don't know the difference between they're and their.

Really? In "they are" commercials?

/Sorry

According to the 500-page report filed by the FCC, more than 90 percent of the children who saw the exposed breast said they were "confused and afraid."
"Mommy has dirty chest bumps," said a 5-year-old boy quoted in one of the thousands of case studies compiled by the FCC. "She's like the bad lady on TV. I'm afraid Mommy will take off her shirt and scare everyone. I hate Mommy."

Time to take those kids still traumatized out to the woodshed and make some fertilizer. Take the parents as well.

OR the kid's mom is a disgusting hosebeast and he is simply worried for the rest of humanity.

Thank GOD we live in a society that will make damned sure that everything can be censored, will be censored. My thanks go out to the FCC Council, the 85 year old blue haired grandmother, the preacher and the ultra right wing conservative who sit on this panel to protect the sanctity of our christian way of life.

"It's over five-years after the fact," I said to my captain as he leaned back from his desk, chomped down on a cigar, and lit it. "Kind of a cold case, no? Any forensic evidence is long gone. Witnesses' memories will be unreliable. Are any of the original investigators still with the department? Hell, are they even still alive?"

"Goddammit, Malone!" He shouted, slamming his hand down. "When I tell you to work a case, you work the case! That boob is still out there walking the streets-- waving its sunburst nipple ring around. Find out who's responsible and bring 'em in!"

"Fine," I said with a grin. "But if I'm on this, I'm going to take it wherever it leads. No matter how high up. And whatever shiat comes, you better back me up." I stormed out of his office before he could get a word in edgewise. I knew I had carte blanche to crack this sucker, as usually. I went to my desk and picked up my two best friends in the world, a colt .45 and a flask of Jameson. One was loaded; the other would do the same for me. I knew by the end of the day, I would need them both. That's how it is when you're with FCC.


/hmmm... wordyninja writes a lot like pocketninja

It might have made more sense if it were a pretty boob.

It was a flapjack.

Sex is an evil depiction of life, we must censor it. Is some manly muslebound guy with a fallusy gun blowing the fark out of people with blood and guts everywhere killing everyone in the worst way possible? Well yeah, that's ok.

If the FCC can prove that the offending nipple broadcast was "willful" (ie. the network had the ability to delete it on a broadcast delay but chose not to), and not accidental, then they can fine the network even more $$$$.

Hell, we're gonna have to pay for grandma's social security and health care somehow!

This is all Bush's fault. If he had appointed reasonable people to the FCC this would not be happening.

What's that? The current chairman (new window) was appointed by Obama? You don't say. I wonder what that means?

People need to have respect for the dead. (Not her brother.)
Those tits died a few years before they got exposed.

Performed by a privates investigator.

A black boob during the Superbowl opened the door for a black boob in the White House.

/Not an Obama-hater

time to shut down the FCC
their brand of corporate censorship no longer has a place

The FCC needs to stop wasting our tax money on censoring TV content. The networks would end up limiting what they show due to lack of sponsers willing to risk a boycott over material that the idiotic over religious object to anyway. If the FCC stopped censoring TV today there still would only be a slight bit more that would make it on the air. Most sane people, which leaves out the overly religious, would not notice the difference.

The Ultra-religious right wing morons need to get over themselves but its unlikely that they will.

I'm from the Midwest, and I would like to say that this is a gigantic waste of time. In fact, the FCC and the MPAA are gigantic wastes of time and space designed to give unemployable Christian jackasses a job when they can barely dress themselves in the morning. I would imagine when they get home they deal with their sexuality by punching themselves in the crotch as hard as they can whenever they see something that arouses them.

Why do we have such pathetic creatures formulating policy again?

Obligatory. (new window)
