FCC Complaint

Yeah, I never heard bad language at school...

 

Innocent little kids don't even know what the word means, nor probably would not have even noticed. It would only be a big deal if made one by an adult.

If the kids ARE old enough to know, what harm did they suffer by hearing a word they probably hear all the time at school?

As for CBS, I am glad your kids were watching CBS...the network that brought us Janet Jackson's bejeweled nipple! :laugh: Yeah, they are great, huh?

 

Amen! :thumbs: Also, why would any small-government conservative want the government bureacracy to get involved in a private business' discipline of an employee who obviously made a mistake? Small government unless you get offended? There is no right to not be offended.

 

I agree C4k, MP!

 

Whether they were quick enough or not on the draw is irrelevant. They're responsible for it.

 

Soap is an aquired taste . . .

 

Never said they were not responsible.

But here's a crazy idea... why not be Christians and be willing to extend grace to those who make mistakes?

 

If you believe it was a mistake, you can show grace.

 

Why are you so sure that it was intentional?

 

I can't believe that any major media outlet would be stupid enough to do this on purpose. It's not the kind of thing that gets em good press.

 

They are responsible. Since there is a delay and they could have bleeped it, it's their fault and they don't have any excuses for not bleeping it.

They will be fined if the FCC enforces the new law. Which they should.

 

Do we know that there was a delay or is that just a guess? Any link to show that program was on a delay at all?

There have been delays since the Super Bowl incident.

 

No, sorry it would seem you're wrong. It's not standard pratice to have all shows on a delay. GMA is a live show. Do you have a link showing what you have suggested? That all TV is on a delay?

Googling this I found that GMA was not on a delay. The Network did censor the word out on the other time zone feeds, but couldn't have done anything about this because there was no delay.

People get all in a fit about something and think they know what's going on when in fact sometimes they don't. Should the networks be on a delay? Maybe, but it's not law so they don't have to be. So should we, instead of glarring at the networks, maybe we should put the blame on Keaton's shoulders where they belong.

Also, it's been brought up before, if you think your kids have never heard a bad word, then they are home schooled and never go anywhere.

Raise your kids to know right from wrong and they will ignore such wordly garbage as this.

They are both at fault. All programs should be on a delay.

If this were nudity instead of foul language people would be in an uproar. This should be no different.

 

Exactly right Roger :thumbs:

 

No, it's not. Unless there is a law that states that have to be on a delay, you can't fault them. It's a live show. They have been doing this for years without incident. I know you want them to be at blame, but they are not.

From the look at it, it doesn't appear to take nudity to get people in an "uproar" look at this thread.

My point is this. Was it bad? Yes. Was ABC to blame? No. Keaton? Yes. but as a Christian, I can't expect the world to conform to what I believe standards are or aren't. I would have to teach my kids right from wrong and then put it in the Lord's hands.

You want this world to be perfect and every way.. That's a nice goal, but it hasn't happen since Adam and Eve.

Jamie

 

When the Super Bowl incident took place even non-christians were upset.

Why? Just because you hear foul language all the time doesn't mean it's acceptable on every program.
It shouldn't be acceptable on any program.

How about this...if it's fine to just let this slip by then how about next time someone accidentally comes out of their clothing we let that slip by too?

Then we can be as desensitized to nudity as much as everyone is desensitized to foul language.

 

One question, who has said it was fine for this to happen?


Jamie

 

Look at some of the comments. Some here think it's fine to just let this slip by because we can't expect to live in a sanitized world.

When it's not just Christians that complain about these types of incidences.

If this were nudity it might be a different story.
