NEW YORK -- NBC has turned over tapes of the opening ceremony of the Athens Olympics to the Federal Communications Commission after an indecency complaint, an industry source told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.
An FCC spokesman declined comment Friday when contacted by the AP. It is not clear what part of the ceremony drew a complaint or who complained -- or even if there was more than one.
The FCC automatically reviews a broadcast when it receives complaints.

Are they talking about the ceremony with the moving Gods who appeared naked? That's ridiculous.

They were lapping it up in the pool too.
To: SmithL
Some of them were high jumping. Maybe that's not indecent but they shouldn't promote recreational drug use.

I don't recall this being part of the broadcast feed NBC sent out.
Maybe someone complained about Katie Couric's snide remarks about Pres. Bush and American foreign policy.

I'm more concerned with the boobs ...er breasts... I see on too fat males dressed in Speedo's at the beach in the summer.
These people and their manufactured outrage over seeing a stray breast is getting quite silly.

Maybe someone complained about Katie Couric's snide remarks about Pres. Bush and American foreign policy....or maybe somebody complained about the continual airing of that obscenity known as the 2004 United States Mens Basketball Team.

My God. If people get so offended, why dont they simply change the channel? I am a conservative, and sometimes I get really irate at other conservatives who want to use the govt to nanny their children.
