MAP Files on Behalf of Creative Community
Posted: Monday May 15, 2006
On behalf of the Center for Creative Voices in Media, MAP filed a Motion to Intervene challenging the FCC’s recently released indecency decisions. The vague and confusing nature of these decisions has prompted broadcast licensees to censor artistic programming to ward off any potential penalties. MAP argues that because the FCC’s indecency decisions have constrained artistic expression, they interfere with the public’s right to access diverse sources of information, as guaranteed by the Communications Act.
