    America, F**k Yeah! Supreme Court Axes FCC's TV Obscenity Rules

    "Today the U.S. Supreme Court released a ruling that significantly scales back the FCC's censorship authority. In the case Federal Communications Commission, et al. v. Fox Television Stations, Inc., et al. the highest court in the land refused to assess the constitutionality of U.S. federal law that prohibits broadcasted obscenities. However, it did deal FCC efforts a blow by finding it illegal for the FCC to fine TV broadcaster who air obscenity or nudity during daytime hours."

    Indeed. It is alright to show an individual get their head blown off in a red misty haze but god forbid a nipple slips.
