Ten Thousand Motels CONGRESS ENACTS STIFF PENALTIES FOR INDECENCY

Legislation vastly increasing the fines the FCC can mete out to broadcasters airing indecent programs received final Congressional approval Wednesday. When President Bush signs it into law, as he has said he will, broadcasters could be forced to pay up to $325,000 per infraction; in the case of a network that amount could be levied on each of its owned stations, so that, for example, NBC, which owns 13 TV stations, could be fined as much as $4.23 million per infraction. (Theoretically each of its affiliates could also be fined, although the FCC has never chosen to take action against them, as well.) The bill passed on Wednesday does not contain language that would have fined individuals appearing on the offending broadcasts -- a provision that had been included in earlier versions and which had been fought relentlessly by the two major performers' unions, AFTRA and SAG. In a statement on Wednesday, FCC Chairman Kevin Martin, praised the Congress for giving "the commission increased fining authority in our efforts to protect children from inappropriate programming." But several legislators observed that the bill did not contain language that would change the rules on indecent broadcasts, many noting that parents have all the tools they need to restrict what their children can see on TV.

Spru Good thing they are jumping on this major problem rather than helping the unemployed and impoverished and those hurting financially because of this corrupt administration.

Well, it's not just about tits. It's about decency. I never did understand the male fascination with female breasts. Oh wait a minute.....
