Demonstrating they have a sound sense of proportion, word is US media regulator the FCC is about to fine TV network CBS $550,000 for allowing Janet Jackson's breast to air on prime time for, God, at least five seconds, during that controversial Superbowl show earlier this year. An FCC insider has told the US media that the regulator's top committee have been recommended to fine each for the 20 CBS-owned stations that aired the Superbowl the top fine of $27,500. Other networks who syndicated the CBS produced show will not be fined.
Whether FCC bosses will accept the recommendation remains to be seen, but given the growing Puritanism among the powers that be in America there's a high chance they will.
Still, over 500,000 US TV viewers were angry enough to complain about Jackson's performance - and pissing off over half a million Americans at a dollar a time seems quite a good use of money to me.
