"FCC Gets S-Word Complaint"

Holy S! Check out this major proof-reading error:


Looks like the S-word might be the next profanity in the sites of indecency foes.

Can you believe that? Spelling errors like that are in my 'sites.'

As for the rest of the article, it goes into how decency maven John/Jack Thompson has complained about 60 Minutes airing the "S-word:"


Attorney John Thompson, whose complaints about Howard Stern helped prompt Clear Channel to banish the jock and the FCC to fine the company almost half a million dollars, says he has faxed a complaint to the FCC about Sunday night's 60 Minutes broadcast, in which singer Mary J. Blige uttered an under-her-breath "shit."

60 Minutes? Holy s!

For more on Thompson's wacky quest, see this, this, this, this, and this. Maybe one way to get this guy out of our hair would be to make him Minister of Decency in Iraq.
