10-7-2003 No FCC Action vs. Bono Over Naughty Word

On Monday, the government agency's Enforcement Bureau rejected complaints by the Parents Television Council and others that Bono's use of the phrase "this is really, really f---ing brilliant" failed to meet the test for indecency.

"The word 'f---ing' my be crude and offensive, but, in the context presented here, did not describe sexual or excretory organs or activities," the bureau wrote. "Rather, the performer used the word 'f---ing' as an adjective or expletive to emphasize an exclamation.

Hell yes . . . so what are odds it will get past the mods?

 

[b0mbrman]

Didn't he use it as more of an adverb?

 

[EXman]

They are Fvcking Retarded dragging down our moral fiber lower and lower very sad but not surprising from this sorry bunch of liberals.

 

[kylebisme]

[phillyTIM]

i hear more and more "bitch" and "ass" and such, on prime time tv these days, or even on the soaps

it's kinda odd how the vulgarity rules are getting less and less strict on network television

 

[ITJunkie]

They're all a bunch of F***ing idiots.

Good adjective though

I wouldnt say neo-cons, that word is thrown around improperly. And I know who hes trying to refer to by "neo-cons" but that isnt the case with the FCC. The FCC has a conservative majority(I believe 3-2), but they are not even in the same group of people that people are refering to as "neo-cons". GWB technically shouldn't even be in that list, let alone the people on the FCC.

And damn it people come up with a new word "neo-con" is not the proper term for the people you are labeling as "neo-con".

 

[kylebisme]

well i call them neo-cons sense that is what they call themselves and it does gengraly go off better than calling the facists.


and EXman, no sarcasim at all; just pointing out that the FCC is not a "bunch of liberals" as you claimed they were.

I'm glad I pulled my punches with that because if your reply is any indication of how you react to an innocous little jab I'm sure you would have burst a blood vessel if I had posted my original response
