"You can't say the f-word on live TV...Had he said these lyrics – and all of the other disgusting and pornographic filth in English on live TV, the broadcast would have been pulled down and the fines would have been enormous."

I doubt this kind of vulgarity and perversion is legal even if it was in a language other than English to be aired on broadcast television.

All of these news stories written portraying it as "unifying", "beautiful" etc. are outrageous lies (moreso than what we already knew just by appearance) if what is reportedly what was actually in these lyrics is correct. Any bi-lingual FReepers able to verify?

Hire scum, and you’ll get scum.

The NFL knew what they were doing.

Considering they scared the straight white blue collar men away, all they have left are latinos and maybe a couple of black guys watching...

aka the halftime show fits their demographic

Slap NBC and the NFL with fines so large they both lose money on the event.

Re scared:

I don’t think scared is the right word. I think we’re just disgusted with them.

If they want to cater to certain tribes, then that’s fine. Let those tribes pay all the bills.

We’ll take care of our own.

My friend’s wife is Honduran and she couldn’t understand a word spewing out of his sewer.

I saw the original daily mail page, and I wondered about the FCC.

I worked in a building and there was an FCC office down the hall, this was in the 80s but they were all stand up guys and gals. (they only looked for “pirate radio”)

I wonder if the FCC is still good today

I do believe the “Turning Point USA” show featured on streaming services probably outdrew the “Not For Long” NFL halftime show by a pretty significant margin.

Political correctness, wokeness, and DEI will be the death of professional football.

I read the translation. If the FCC doesn’t levy heavy fines against NBC and the NFL, and the NFL commissioner PERSONALLY, then there is no reason to watch anything connected to the NFL ever again.

And get J-Zee the hell out of there.

FCC has been mostly a toothless, napping Teddy Bear for years. Even before the so-called Janet Jackson exposed breast ‘scandal’ from Super Bowl on Feb 1st, 2004, most performers had very little concern about what the FCC might do.

I’m no expert, but I’ve been told that Caribbean Spanish is very different to Spanish as spoken on the mainland.

The first Super Bowl halftime show on January 15, 1967, featured the University of Arizona Symphonic Marching Band, the Grambling State University Marching Band, trumpet player Al Hirt, and the Anaheim High School Ana-Hi-Steppers Drill Team .

Another world ...

I’ve been told by a Hispanic guy that there are many dialects of Spanish but most speak a sort of unwritten “trade” language that’s mostly slang

YES. Fine them millions of dollars. Take broadcast licenses. Hold hearings. Hang this around their sorry woke multicultural necks.
