    PTC Files Indecency Complaint Against ABC’s Live 8 Concert

    Oh for Pete's sake.

    LOS ANGELES (July 14, 2005) – Today, the Parents Television Council (PTC), the nation’s most influential advocacy organization protecting children against sex, violence and profanity in entertainment, filed an indecency complaint with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) about the ABC Network pre-recorded airing of Live 8: A Worldwide Concert Event for the use of unedited profanity. The PTC, on behalf of its nearly one million members nationwide, has asked the FCC to levy a Notice of Apparent Liability against each ABC affiliate that aired the unedited program.
    Audiences tuning-in to this family hour broadcast got an unexpected surprise at the bottom of the first hour. During The Who’s performance of “Who Are You,” a line in the chorus “who the f*ck are you” was aired unedited. The concert program that contained the indecent material aired during the 8:00 – 9:00 pm hour (Eastern Time) on July 2, 2005, on the ABC Network.
    “The program was aired on a tape delay, which should have given ABC ample time to edit all obscenities from the concert prior to broadcast,” said Tim Winter, executive director of the PTC. “ABC took steps to edit other profanity from the broadcast. But given the time of day that this program aired, the broad family appeal of the Live 8 event, as well as the program’s PG rating, ABC should have been more diligent.”

    Would somebody get these people a stamp collecting kit so they can have something else to do with their time? Tipper Gore would never have done anything this stupid.
