Anthony\'s thoughts on the FCC and the Broadcast Decency Hearings - IrishAlkey - 02-17-2004 Great read. I'm not quoting any snippets from it because I think the whole piece is worth reading. Anthony\'s thoughts on the FCC and the Broadcast Decency Hearings - Sloats - 02-17-2004 I thought Shiffen HATED the boys, be he fucking NAILED it right here: Quote:I think it needs to be pointed out, again, that the real problem in this case is that the incident was broadcast in the middle of a football game. The audience expectation, under these circumstances, was that it was not going to be subjected to sexually explicit content. If this was a late night show or a situation comedy known for sexual innuendo, the expectation level would be different. I guess he did like the show. Anthony\'s thoughts on the FCC and the Broadcast Decency Hearings - Flock of Moosen - 02-17-2004 I love this line. :biggrin: Quote:“We’re in St. Pats and he’s doing the balloon knot.†Anthony\'s thoughts on the FCC and the Broadcast Decency Hearings - The Brain - 02-17-2004 Quote:Originally posted by Flock of MoosenAnd therein is the whole source of the "incident". Anthony argues that the FCC received complaints left and right about graphic depictions of sexual acts. What you quoted was the <i>single line in the transcript of the show</i> concerning what was going on at the cathedral. If you're not a fan of the show, you probably don't even what "balloon knot" is code for. So how would these complainers even know what to complain about? Nothing graphic or explicit was depicted over the air. Ant was right in saying the FCC simply jumped the gun on second-hand accounts and speculation, and then had no choice but to follow through on their promise to punish the perceived "offense". Anthony\'s thoughts on the FCC and the Broadcast Decency Hearings - Black Lazerus - 02-17-2004 balloon knot was a pain in the ass. the guy i mean not the act.

Anthony\'s thoughts on the FCC and the Broadcast Decency Hearings - 60FeetUnderWater - 02-17-2004 Quote:Originally posted by The Brain Amongst all of my friends who called themselves "fans" of the show, I was the only one that became active on the boards after the cancellation, making CDs for others and defending the boys at any bar I happen to be in during the weeks after the cancellation; I cited this very same arguement that you just posted Brain (and the very same point Anthony brilliantly drove home): The broadcast was NOT indecent by FCC standards in any way, shape, or form. Its great to see that after all this time, my point (which was formed as the reports came flooding in regarding the cancellation) is still as solid today as it was on the immediate days after 8/22/02. And its frustrating as fuck to realize that we all lost great radio these last (almost) 2 years over HERESY and secondhand (and utterly irresponsible) reporting. Soon enough, we'll all be able to hear the boys go off on a plethora of corksuckers and sononmabatches like the FCC & the Catholic League. I can't wait.
