Don't get me started on the Janet Jackson incident! (Which was in 2004 by the way, not exactly yesterday.) That was a classic stripper performance, partial fleeting nudity used as an erotic display, for those who think that kind of thing is erotic. People were absolutely right to protest, and naturists should be applauding that it was recognized for what it was.
Once again, check the facts! CBS beat the fine in court, no doubt after spending many times the cost in legal bills. But they did it by surrendering the main issue, namely they said they hadn't been given adequate warning of what was prohibited. In doing that, they accepted that it was something prohibited--so they've put themselves in a position where they can never do it again in the future. But technology has made the whole thing pretty much irrelevant anyway, because everyone has cable and the Internet, where rules covering broadcast TV don't apply.
