The FCC has gone too far as it has begun and investigation into the Desperate Housewives clip featuring a nude Nicollette Sheridan jumping into Philadelphia Eagles Wide Receiver Terrell Owens arms.
November 30, 2004 (Press Release) --
http://legalball.com/NFL_2004_Terrell_Owens_Censorship is a feature article written by sports reporter Keith Dobkowski on the hypocrisy surrounding the FCC and the NFL.
On Monday Night, November 15, ABC created a 30 second promo for their hit television show Desperate Housewives. In the 30 second bit, Desperate Housewives star Nicollette Sheridan is seen in nothing but a towel seducing NFL star Terrell Owens in the Eagles locker room before the Monday Night game. As the bit came to an end, Sheridan drops her towel exposing her naked upper back and jumps into Owens' arms.
And with a drop of a towel another NFL controversy had begun. The NFL, fresh off a Super Bowl in which halftime performer Janet Jackson exposed part of her breast, finds itself once again at the heart of an FCC investigation.
http://legalball.com/NFL_2004_Terrell_Owens_Censorship author Dobkowski explores the non-sense behind this investigation. Using a combination of satire and sarcasm, Dobkowski rightly puts FCC Chairman Michael Powell in the hot seat.
Dobkowski explores the most inflamatory statements and actions in recent NFL history including Rush Limbaugh's racist comments and Owens' homophobic comments. Dobkowski debates the FCC's guidelines allowing racist sentiment but penalizing the human body. To read this artilce make sure to visit http://legalball.com/NFL_2004_Terrell_Owens_Censorship
