CitizenLink reports:

The Protecting Children from Indecent Programming Act that was introduced in the U.S. House Tuesday would make it clear that fleeting expletives should not be allowed on radio and TV stations. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in June that Congress really didn't mean for such expletives to be considered indecent, and reversed fines levied by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).

 

Rep. Charles "Chip" Pickering, R-Miss., said he introduced the bill to set the record straight.
