Hello my party peeps! I'm appalled to report that big media wins again. In a ruling given Monday, the judicial system showcased its incompetence by declaring CBS innocent of indecency in reference to the great Janet Jackson boob fiasco of 2004, and therefore, CBS will not have to pay the FCC sanctioned fine of $550,000.
The judicial geniuses that make up the three-judge panel of the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals fell for CBS’s preposterously stupid excuse of “we didn’t know we couldn’t do that.” Such a ludicrous remark is tantamount to pleading with your boss not to fire you because you didn’t know that sex with the cleaning lady while at work was frowned upon.
In their explanation for the ridiculous ruling, the court stated that the FCC could not levy a fine against CBS because doing so would deviate from its standard practice of subjecting words and images to the exact same level of scrutiny.
Supporting the argument against human intelligence, a spokesperson for television executives, who has direct ties to the suit, insinuated that the ruling in favor of CBS acts as “an important advance for preserving creative freedom on the air.”
While I’m a huge proponent for artistic freedoms, and I do consider the 1st amendment the big red soda to my Barbacoa taco, I don’t agree that the misogynistic fantasy of having a woman’s blouse violently ripped off of her body in order to expose her jeweled up titty constitutes creativity. If I’m wrong and that’s the case, then someone needs to alert MENSA because my perverted uncle Frank is a savant.
The gross negligence of the court, along with that of CBS, is indicative of our struggling culture. By allowing CBS to hide in loop holes and remain unaccountable, the court has made a complete mockery of our system. The duty of the court is to respect and cherish our rights, not to exploit them for frivolous gain. When we subject our rights to shielding the improper, they become weak, worn and unable to protect us against legitimate threats.
Yours in Democracy,
