FCC: Jesus Christ is a 4-letter word
You may have missed it on the Emmy's this year. I did.
But when "Jesus Christ" was uttered by award-recipient Elaine Strich, it was muted out for broadcast. Meanwhile, her "f'n" variant on the f-word was broadcasted freely and clearly.
It seems Jesus Christ, spoken aloud for national broadcast, may be considered "indecent" by the federal government. No shit.
This flies in the face of my intuitions of free speech protected by the First Amendment--not to mention constitutional doctrine separating church and state.
After the Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction from CBS' Superbowl broadcast, the networks are Super-sensitive to government fines and regulation. CBS has been fined $550,000 by the FCC.
Jesus Christ!
I suspect CBS will appeal the FCC fine.
