FCC Finally Drops The Fine For Janet's Peek-A-Boob At The 2004 Superbowl
A federal appeals court has thrown out the $550,000 indecency fine against CBS Corporation for Janet Jackson "accidentally" exposing her boob during the the 2004 Super Bowl halftime show, according to the Associated Press.
The three judge panel of the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the FCC "acted arbitrarily and capriciously" in issuing the fine for the brief image of nudity. The FCC argued that Jackson's nudity (though it lasted a fraction of a second), was graphic and explicit and CBS should have been forewarned. In defense of the FCC fine, CBS said that "fleeting, isolated or unintended" images should not automatically be considered indecent.
What do you think? Should CBS have been fined? Does anyone even care?
