    U.S. backs increased indecency fines

    The war on boobs and indecent behaviour have started.Reuters.

    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. lawmakers have approved a measure to dramatically stiffen penalties against television and radio broadcasters who cross the line on airing indecent material.

    The congressional effort comes after a rash of incidents ranging from purported cartoon character voices describing explicit sexual activities on the radio to pop singer Janet Jackson's recent breast baring during the television broadcast of the Super Bowl halftime show.

    Lawmakers on the panel set no maximum for the total fine for an entire incident. They also agreed to require the FCC to hold hearings on revoking a broadcaster's licence after three violations.
    If that's not censorship. I don't know what is.

      public airwaves have always been censored.
      as they should be.

      Now please twist this story around so that US lawmakers = Bush puppets.

                                              They've upped the fine to $500,000 per incident. That pretty much will shut down the adult talk radio industry.
