FCC's profanity crackdown

Thought this was interesting considering the fact that we have discussed the topic in class.

I do have to question the effects of the strict enforcement of the rules. If it's a live TV show and you have a guest in the studio and he blurts out a profane word, the TV station would have to pay a fine. I think it's unfair and been taken to far.
