Advertising lobby groups were up in arms last week after the Federal Communications Commission fined a Puerto Rican TV station for a video clip promoting a reggae CD that it deemed “indecent”—the first time in memory the FCC has fined a station for a promo. The lobbyists say this could set a precedent for increased scrutiny of all ads.
“As the FCC ratchets up its scrutiny of indecency and increases the fines, the pressure on the broadcast clearance process becomes more intense as well,” said Dan Jaffe, evp of government relations for the Association of National Advertisers.
ABC declined comment.
