Canadian vs. American attitudes about sex and broadcasting



Contrast the fuss over Janet Jackson's "wardrobe failure" with the 
lack of concern over a Canadian radio station that played a crooner 
type tune called "Blow Me" during moring drive time. (complete lyrics 
are shown in the decision)

Here is the actual decision from the Canadian Broadcast Standards 
Council. Note what concerns them and what the penalty is - compared 
to the zillions of dollars the FCC is talking about with people who 
show a tit on TV.

Oh, and it only took them about a year to make the decision.
