"9/11," which will be shown in prime-time, contains a tremendous amount of hardcore profanity. CBS has stated they have not, and will not, make any cuts in the amount and degree of profanity. CBS will ignore the law. The network is suing the FCC over the indecency law, saying they should be able to show whatever they desire whenever they desire. CBS wants no limits.

This is a test case for CBS to see how far they can go. If there is no out-pouring of complaints from the public, they will go further the next time.

How many times have you seen this documentary, since you "know" it contains a "tremendous amount of hardcore profanity"?

When did you see it? (I think we already know the answer, don't we?)

This is nothing more than speculation and conjecture. It has no basis in fact.

It isn't a test. CBS is a business. The network's only job is to get eyeballs on the screen. If they could run a test pattern and get 9 million people to watch, they would. Again, CBS is a for profit business that earns its money by getting people to watch what it broadcasts.
