Fining Every NBC-TV Station In The Country -
For Failing To Bleep The F-Word During Golden Globes Broadcast

Urgent Action Needed

To File An Official Complaint Insisting That The FCC Enforce TV Decency Laws By Fining Every NBC-TV Station In The Country For Failing To Bleep The F**k Word During Golden Globes Broadcast.

PLEASE READ AND IMMEDIATELY TELL YOUR FRIENDS & FAMILY!!!

The Parents Television Council has denounced NBC-TV for failing to mute the "F**k" word" from Sunday night's broadcast of the Golden Globe Awards.  Bono, the lead singer of U2, said the word while accepting an award.  Until now, TV networks routinely broadcast live shows through a delay system that allows for the removal of inappropriate material. 

But last Sunday night here's what TV viewers, young and old, heard—unbleeped:

Bono: "This is really, really, f*****g brilliant."

This televised broadcast of the Golden Globe Awards turned out to be another sad addition to a long list of examples of network irresponsibility that sacrifices family viewing for raunchy programming, and yet another example of a broadcast network clearly violating federal laws prohibiting broadcast indecency, while the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) allows the incident to pass without a word.

We cannot let the networks continue to flaunt broadcast decency laws, and we cannot let the FCC continue to sit back and do nothing when they do.   We need your help today to pressure the FCC to uphold the law to keep the broadcast airwaves decent and safe for children, and put NBC on notice that this flagrant abuse of the public airwaves will not be tolerated.  NBC-TV and its affiliate stations must be held accountable for allowing extremely offensive obscenity to be aired.

I urge you and every decent, responsible parent and grandparent to help the Parents Television Council stop this outrage.  Here's how:

1. Go to TVC and sign the OFFICIAL INDECENCY COMPLAINT against the NBC-TV network and its local affiliates with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Now!  We need to flood the FCC with complaints against this show, or before you know it filth like this will be routine on TV.

• MOST IMPORTANT -- CUT, COPY, & PASTE THIS ARTICLE AND E-MAIL IT TO EVERYONE IN YOUR ADDRESS BOOK NOW.

  Hopefully, many of your friends and family will forward this e-mail also and your FCC Indecency Complaint will be multiplied many, many times over! The Parents Television Council and our more than 750,000 grass roots supporters have become the most powerful TV watchdog group in the country -- working to return decency to TV.

  So now, PLEASE FORWARD this article by email to everyone in your e-mail address book.

  Then go to TVC and sign the official FCC Indecency Complaint against the January 19 broadcast of  the Golden Globes Award Show.

  We need a BIG GRASS ROOTS RESPONSE to sign this official FCC complaint! 

  Please don't delay.

  Urgent thanks!

People like webber here are why some voters off the dole vote for Dems( excluding non dole bainwashed peaceniks and commies).

Herr webber is a classic case of a "social conservative" who has too much time on their hands and prefers to spend it running my life and the lives of others. Herr webber needs to try this simple solution, turn the channel when you find something on television you find offensive.

BTW: Abolish the Fascist Censors Commission.

Well said. If the Republican Party could rid itself of the likes of webber, its voting bloc would probably rise a few dozen percentage points.

[webber]

Good! they should leave the GOP. We don't want them, and we surely don't need them (you included.)

[weikel]

So your saying who all those who see the GOP as the party at least ideally of small government and military strength should leave it to make way for puritans with nothing better to do. I feeling giving you an unbleeped F word myself.
