Angry FCC Again

Quote:
LOS ANGELES -- Fox says it covered up the naked rear end of a cartoon character recently because of nervousness over what the Federal Communications Commission will find objectionable.

The latest example of TV network self-censorship because of FCC concerns came a few weeks ago during a rerun of a "Family Guy" cartoon. Fox electronically blurred a character's posterior, even though the image was seen five years ago when the episode originally aired.

FCC need to be disband and all its employees left on the street.

Agreed. I can't believe people are so afraid of free speech that they'd fricking blur out a cartoon ass.

They blurred the ass of a cartoon character. LOL. The FCC becomes more of a joke every single day.
