He blamed Hannity for saying ****? LOL. I just don’t see Hannity cursing like that. He strikes me as a more Beaver Cleaver type. This is like blaming the dog when you fart.
That was unbelievable. What a psycho he is.
Hannity trying to convince him they were actually on the air was priceless. LOL
I turn off FOX, the moment that fat Marxist slob comes on the screen.
No doubt, he needs those suspenders to hold up his fat paunch.
What an uncouth piece of excrement he is. Roger Ailes should end his contract with FOX. NOW!!!
It’s Against the Law
It is a violation of federal law to air obscene programming at any time. It is also a violation of federal law to air indecent programming or profane language during certain hours. Congress has given the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) the responsibility for administratively enforcing these laws. The FCC may revoke a station license, impose a monetary forfeiture or issue a warning if a station airs obscene, indecent or profane material.
Obscene Broadcasts Are Prohibited at All Times
Obscene material is not protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution and cannot be broadcast at any time. The Supreme Court has established that, to be obscene, material must meet a three-pronged test:
•An average person, applying contemporary community standards, must find that the material, as a whole, appeals to the prurient interest; •The material must depict or describe, in a patently offensive way, sexual conduct specifically defined by applicable law; and •The material, taken as a whole, must lack serious literary, artistic, political or scientific value.
Indecent Broadcast Restrictions
The FCC has defined broadcast indecency as “language or material that, in context, depicts or describes, in terms patently offensive as measured by contemporary community standards for the broadcast medium, sexual or excretory organs or activities.” Indecent programming contains patently offensive sexual or excretory material that does not rise to the level of obscenity.
The courts have held that indecent material is protected by the First Amendment and cannot be banned entirely. It may, however, be restricted in order to avoid its broadcast during times of the day when there is a reasonable risk that children may be in the audience.
Consistent with a federal indecency statute and federal court decisions interpreting the statute, the Commission adopted a rule that broadcasts -- both on television and radio -- that fit within the indecency definition and that are aired between 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. are prohibited and subject to indecency enforcement action.
Profane Broadcast Restrictions
The FCC has defined profanity as “including language so grossly offensive to members of the public who actually hear it as to amount to a nuisance.”
Like indecency, profane speech is prohibited on broadcast radio and television between the hours of 6 a.m. and 10 p.m.
How to File a Complaint
There is no charge for filing a complaint with the FCC. You can file your complaint using an online complaint form. You can also file a complaint by calling 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322) voice, 1-888-TELL-FCC (1-888-835-5322) TTY; faxing 1-866-418-0232; or writing to:

E-MAIL ADDRESS?
Does anyone know of an eMail address for the Hannity show?
I looked on the FOX News site but didn’t see one.

Beckel is a caricature of himself now. He does the left wing liberal schtick to make a buck.
This seems likes a skit.
Beckel isn’t so stupid he’d truly believe Head Start is a program that has ever worked. Too much data to prove it doesn’t and is a waste of money.
Oh, I forgot, the left wing doesn’t believe in science thus all of their utopias work perfectly.
I honestly don’t understand Hannity. He says that he’s “friends”, off the air with be beckel and other slimy libtards while they have such obvious contempt for Conservatives. He must pick up the check. You’re known by your friends Sean.
Is Beckel that fat guy who’s on The Five or something like that on FOX?
I fear that Fontova is taking Beckel too seriously.Since posting this, I've seen Beckel come out wearing tie-dye, sunglasses, and other clown suits, so I must have been right.Beckel's "Che" remark was probably what he thought was a cheap throw-away line intended to antagonize the person he was "debating."
Beckel has reduced himself to the role of Liberal Clown, making the most outrageous and unsubstantiatied defenses of anything liberal, more as a parody than to be serious.
Watching Beckel these days is like watching Requiem for a Liberal. Maybe Beckel will even come on one night wearing a Che tee-shirt, just like when Anthony Quinn wore an indian chief costume in the final scene.

Beckel is the poster boy for what today’s liberal is: Just an emotional, loud, obnoxious bully who could’t make a fact-based argument if you gave him the facts in a gift-wrapped box! Isn’t he the idiot who once wrote a personal check to a hooker?
Flipped to FNC just as Beckel dropped the “F” bomb. He couldn’t believe that he was actually on air.
I don’t mind Beckel- you need to hear what the ‘enemy’ thinks
and he is less stomach-churning than most
It just amazes me that he can be so stupid
Interesting that at the beginning of the show, I think Hannity warned him to watch his mouth, specifically the BS phrase. The man is a pig as are all libs. And to blame Sean... sheesh!
