You read right. Here's the email I got: I suggest you click on the official FCC link and read the case. Grassfire.net has just learned that the Federal Communications Commission has rejected a complaint against the use of the F-word on network television! Even worse, the FCC has opened the door for the use of the F-word as long as the word is used as an adjective! (i.e. "This is f------ brilliant!") This is not an urban legend! See the news stories below. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + 150,000 Citizens complaints needed + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Over the next 30 days, we are urging every Grassfire.net team member to take immediate action and file a formal complaint with the FCC. Take a moment to file your official complaint: http://www.grassfire.net/39/petition.asp?RID=4325835 Once we reach 25,000 citizen responses, Grassfire.net will personally deliver all of our formal complaints directly to the FCC.

GOOD! what makes a word bad anyway?! GO AHEAD, TELL ME!! ooohh the children!! they're going to be ruined forever!! btw, while they're at it, they should allow nudity and the other forbidden words...
Why don't you go to your grandmother and curse around her, at her, with her. Then tell her to get unf*kcing dressed and smoke weed together. You need to have some morals asswipe.
the FCC should be shut down. instead, there should be some v-chip type thing, or settings in your cable box. if parents are afraid of "bad words" and the terrible naked human body (sarcasm), they should be able to not allow these shows. for example, block all shows rated MA without a password or something. you could make a law requiring tvs to have this feature, but really, you don't even need to. if there's a demand for it, some company will make tvs with this feature and whacky religious paranoid parents can buy that kind. for people like me who don't give a f***. I SHOULD BE ABLE TO RECEIVE ALL THE "BADNESS" I WANT WITHOUT SOME GOVERNMENT AGENCY INTERFERING AND BLEEPING THE F*** Mod Edit: ((Wash your mouth out with soap!)) OUT OF MY MOVIES AND BLURRING OUT TITS! WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!
hey, F**K OFF. wah wah my words are so bad! IF YOU DON'T LIKE SOMETHING, DON'T WATCH/LISTEN TO IT. STOP CENSORING WHAT I DON'T WANT CENSORED. ((mod edit: The rest has been censored to remove endless profanity)) USE A CABLE SERVICE OR TV WITH PARENTAL CONTROLS, P****! YOU NEED TO STOP PUSHING YOUR PATHETIC MORALS ON ME, A*******!
