SCOTUS asked to back FCC rules


The Obama administration on Wednesday urged the Supreme Court to review the FCC’s decision to fine CBS for Janet Jackson’s “wardrobe malfunction” during the 2004 Super Bowl.

In its petition to the court, Solicitor General Donald Verrilli Jr. contends that the commission’s $550,000 fine for the incident was warranted because the indecency rules cover “fleeting nudity.”
