Seymour Butts

$1.4 Million is the size of the FCC's fine for showing "an adult woman's buttocks" on NYPD Blue. It's good to see that the FCC is being ever vigilant in protecting the sanctity of our airwaves from such offensive filth. It looks encouraging then that they will probably relax the rules on consolidation, since the less companies there are the easier it will be to prevent these gratuitous obscenities from ever being shown.

There is one thing about it thought that I haven't been able to make sense of. How is it that showing her butt on the recent show merits a fine while showing Dennis Franz's early on in the show didn't?

Go Fuck Yourself, FCC

In an interesting twist, the FCC press release used more dirty words than the incidents in question, after being told if the pres and vice pres do it its ok.
