Not sure if any of you are NASCAR fans but remember when Jr. said shit (or was it damn)??? NASCAR fined him $$$ and driver points for it and NBC went to a 10 second delay after that. Then last season there was another incident but it was on TNT so nothing happened. (There was apparently no FCC intervention on the Jr. one either)
The only time the FCC will step in is if there is a complaint. Unfortunately, there are enough special interest groups out there determined to shut down anything and everything that they deem wrong and immoral, there is usually a complaint for anything and everything... What I find sad is that these "watchdog groups" have to spend their time watching the programs they supposedly hate in an effort to shut them down. Kinda seems odd to me...
