United States Second Circuit
Fox Tel. Stations, Inc. v. FCC, 06-1760
In a petition for review of the indecency policy of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), commonly referred to as the "fleeting expletive" policy, the petition is granted where the FCC's policy violated the First Amendment because it was unconstitutionally vague, creating a chilling effect that goes far beyond the fleeting expletives at issue.
