Howard Stern did close to anything he wanted to before going to Satellite; kids can get ANYTHING off the internet; cable programming shows some pretty over the top things.
Now theyre saying a TV special with Madonna wont display her on a crucifix or cross of some kind.
I think people who try to regulate what is and is not on TV are the only ones with the problem. Parents and other watchers can simply pick and choose what will be watched and what isnt. At this stage of entertainment and media, i think the FCC is practically pointless.

True, the FCC is not a censor for content. I guess for some reason the government thinks that this would be infringement, but they can monitor our phone calls! Go figure.
But, on the other hand, one benefit of the FCC is that they monitor local areas for cell phone suitability. If an area is completely dead, they will authorize a new tower. But, if the signal is there, just weak or in and out, they won't authorize a new tower being built. I just went through this with my wireless company.

I would agree, as it seems they are more interested in signal strength than signal content
