The FCC clears Nicolette Sheridan and Terrel Owens of obscenity

According to Zap2it, The FCC has cleared the Nicolette Sheridan/Terrell Owens MNF skit.
"The Federal Communications Commission ruled Monday (March 14) that a skit involving "Desperate Housewives" star Sheridan that aired on ABC's "Monday Night Football" last fall may have been "titillating," but it wasn't indecent."

But don't think that these idiots (the FCC) have their noses any less up he ass of the right wing:

"FCC Commissioner Michael Copps agreed with the ruling but urged broadcasters to show a little more restraint in the future.
'There wasn't much self-discipline in this particular promotion,' Copps says in a statement. 'As stewards of the public airwaves, broadcasters can and should do better.'

To say this level of stupidity is scary as hell, masks the real question behind the FCC's involvement in this "skit": If Terrell Owen was white, would anyone have noticed Nicolette Sheridan's naked back?
