    I believe the FCC only has jurisdiction over broadcast TV and broadcast radio, since the government owns those airwaves, hence the need for a license to broadcast. Cable TV and Satellite radio do not fall under the FCC's rules. So, if Comedy Central wanted to show p*rn at 7:00 PM they could. Of course they woud lost about 95% of their advertisers, but they could.

    Not unless they go after Trojan advertisers. And maybe the FOOTBALL IN TIRE pill.

    I wonder why Spike TV doesn't show nudity then. It is a network for men.
