FCC rejects network appeal of NYPD Blue tushy fine
by Matthew Lasar Feb 20 2008 - 11:11am Ars Technica story
The American Civil Liberties Union called the decision "paternalism at its worst," but the Federal Communications Commission today denied the ABC television network's appeal of a proposed $1.4 million dollar fine for an NYPD Blue program that briefly showed a woman's naked behind. And the agency went further in categorically defining the derrière as a sexual/excretory part of the human anatomy, rejecting ABC's argument that it has no sexual or excretory function. Reply |
