It's a fucking shame. It really is.

News comes to us from America that CBS and Fox have both filed suits contesting the FCC's current regime regulating the use of language and portrayals of sex on broadcast television. Both suits hinge on First Amendment free speech arguments.

The FCC responded that both networks are out of touch with America thereby implying that the FCC is somehow in touch with America. You figure it out.

They also said, specifically in relation to the Fox action,

“By continuing to argue that it is okay to say the F-word and the S-word on television whenever it wants, Hollywood is demonstrating once again how out of touch it is with the American people.”

Done and dusted I'd say.

If "Fox" is the F-word what is the S-word?
