On Monday, the ABC network announced that it was appealing a fine imposed by the FCC for an "indecent" scene in a 2003 (2003!) episode of NYPD Blue. The crime: "multiple, close-up views" of female "nude buttocks," broadcasted before 10:00pm. The fine: $1.4 million.
The FCC imposed the fine because it considered the ass in question a "sexual organ." Perhaps the FCC should subject itself to an indecency investigation.
More here and here, including a link to the scene in question. (I thought about posting the YouTube clip here, but while the scene is hardly indecent it is probably NSFW (Not Safe for Work)).
