FCC Washington, D.C.—In response to the Supreme Court’s decision to review the Second Circuit Court of Appeals’ decision in Fox v. FCC, Commissioner Michael J. Copps issued the following statement: “I’m pleased that the Supreme Court agreed to review the Fox decision. While the FCC has a statutory duty to enforce the indecency laws, I continue to believe that all of us—government, industry, and parents—have a role to play in protecting our children from inappropriate material. The Court’s review will hopefully bring additional clarity to concerned citizens and broadcasters alike.” - FCC -
