Boob fined by FCC Boobs
So CBS is getting fined a half a million dollars a a split second shot of Janet Jackson's breast. How freaking retarded is that? My whole life I've been seeing nudity all over the television screen. So what's the big deal now?
Allow me to take you through a bit of a timeline to illustrate my point.
1957: The gorgeous and busty Jayne Mansfield bent over and her nipple was seen on broadcast television to countless viewers.
Here's something really interesting. Not even a decade later, viewers were outraged when Barbara Eden's character on "I Dream of Jeanie" was going to show her belly button on network television. It was deemed in too upappropriate for television.
1973: With complete intention, Valerie Perrine showed her nipples on PBS in a unisex shower scene with Bill Bixby.
1977: The miniseries Roots showed full frontal nudity of African black women.
Skip forward to the 90's. NYPD Blue dared to show all types of nudity including the gruesome image of Dennis Franz's ass that tortured America. This image was so disturbing that no where on the net can an image be found. And I am shamed that I even thought to expose you to the horror. Forgive me.
1994: Meredith Baxter (you remember her as Mrs. Keaton from "Family Ties") dared to star in a television network movie called, "The Breast". So naturally, what did she have to do? Show her tits. And I'm not talking just a nipple peek either. You saw everything.
2004: ER showed full frontal of an 80 year old woman with a child about the age of 12 on the same set. And yes, they were lumpy and saggy. Shame on you NBC for my re-occuring nightmare.
Super Bowl 2004: Janet Jackon shows a covered nipple on the SuperBowl.
So let's take a look at some pictures of what I was talking about. You be the judge. Of these pictures, who should have been fined and for who much? It kinda puts perspective on things when they are robbing CBS of so much for something so little.

Well done Shawn. I think it is apparent the FCC is a victim of the last round of budget cuts in Washington. Gotta find a way to pay for the censorship efforts I guess. A friend of mine recently had breast enlargements. She told me it cost her about $6000. I would say that Janet's got that beat. Should we call Guiness Book of Records? Are the tip rates at topless bars going to increase now that they have a new standard established?
