Complaints Pour In To FCC Over Super Bowl Flash

Reuters reports upset television viewers have filed more than 200,000 complaints about Janet Jackson’s breast-baring performance at the Super Bowl, a record for the Federal Communication Commission, officials said on Friday. Gripes over the flash of Jackson’s breast last Sunday easily eclipsed the FCC’s previous record — 80,000 complaints that came after television actress Nicole Richie used a curse word on the 2003 Billboard Music Awards, the agency said. “The vast majority express outrage that this occurred during a family program, when many children were in the viewing audience,” FCC consumer and information chief K. Dane Snowden said in a statement.
