Description
oh, i wish i had some peace.
you know this governor we have is a neurotic insecure person, and plots his evil campaigns as
carefully as madonna plots her outfits for a pr splash, or, like Lady gaga, who he is using right now to
push his "things italian" aesthetic over all of us loser new jerseyites who can't afford to fly to houston
for the big super bowl game like he and all his friends do.
so they misuse government phone towers or satellites here in state to put us covertly on a frquency
with Lady Gaga muzak.
whatever my feelings are about the singer Lady Gaga (and i happen to not like her routine at all) it
would be like me putting him on a bandwidth with david allan coe after he's been raped/sodomized in
a truckstop bathroom with that music playing in the background. i'm not going to have to tell you how
obnoxious it is therefore.

if he doesn't stop misusing state government towers this way, can we impeach him?

or would his goombah squad pick on somebody else or use another means, like, say, our tomatoes or
our biscotti.

i'm part italian. i also happen to be sober from alcohol for many years by the grace of God, and see
this man and this whole 'super bowl vehicle' as a pathetic wound to us all. and yes, very sick. and
cowardly in his ignorant 'how else do you expect us to make money' retort.

when pasttimes become agendas to force more booze and pot and sexting and government agenda
and so on, it's time we all move to governor christy's house.

oh, not sure if you can field this last one, but THEY (i think it's him, but may be the more locally based
prostitution racket) have 'watched' me, montored what i watch on TV and have ruined the channel i
kept on while doing my work in my studio. they took the Hallmark TV channel which played these
really sweet innocent xmas shows year round (ok, i'm corny sometimes) and switched it all out to
suddenly be filled with the (whore) starlets that the loser family i come from pimp. and they turned the
programming around, and made it into 'mystery/murder' channel and also put jewish funeral shows on
as well. lastly they use a transmogrify composite program to morph the face of a good ole local
whore named 'julie' into the faces on the shows, so, like the actress will look like julie the whore, and
so will the next actress, and so will the next, always with a little, cadence for the rights to fuck your
boyfriend....you know how those whores work to get a hit off of a man, then shame him to follow up,
or else? how they are so sohpisticated they make a kurt vonnegut novel seem simple? well, they
now have figured out a way to use TV shows as part real time, prob attached up to a computer "level'
monitor program of a person's neurotransmitter levels, and bingo, they can fire off an actress/whore
to look like she is flirting with the viewer or, whoever is also on the viewers mind and crosscheck it
with a person's bio neurotransimitters and . this bioethics not withstanding, i don't want THEM
montioring my TV show watching and spot channeling me with the computeraided/psychological-link
programming and then, you know, ordering their little minionslavewhore to go to the area where the
"john' is, and make him follow through. or, at the very least, have a robo computer aided call go out
to him by her or a voicechanger computer aided sound alike via the cable station computer links, to
his cellphone, with real her coming in if the price is right.

this blows. and it is also illegal because it is a misuseage of their licensing agreemants. plus you
know prostitution is illegal, no matter how big and blustery and coerced it is. and this coercion goes
along with the rape culture like i was telling you about with Lady Gaga being used by the fatso italiano
governor to push his aesthetic. sorry governor. pick another loser.

i think we all need a break.

My wife and I were horrified that such scurrilous and filthy language is now being allowed by the FCC
and letting this set a pattern that must be stopped NOW and an example must be set. CNN should
be disallowed their charter or license from the federal governemnt immediately. Madonna's right of

'F Bombs', but a 3rd anchor tried to excuse it and say it was the same as people saying "Lock Her
Up!" in the background at the Inauguration.

This was terribly offensive! CNN had the opportunity to cut away the first time she said it, but they
didn't. Then after allowing it to happen more than once, one of their anchors attempted to politicize
vocabulary in an attempt to justify the profanity.

Incredibly offensive coverage from a new channel!!!

protest on 01/21/2017. Please tell me why there was not a delay and Madonna was able to say Fu#k
you three times on live T.V. I'm sure nothing will come of this or anyone will even read this email but
people get fined for a lot less than this. Shame on CNN and shame on you the FCC is nothing is done
about this matter. People were fined over the super bowl incident with Janet Jackson and this
should be no different! !!!

Greetings and to whom it may concern. I was watching the day time coverage of the National
Women's March today on CNN and they were covering a speech by Madonna. Madonna used the F-
Word several times and CNN failed to suppress the vulgar language. As an end result, my 4 and 6
year old daughter were sitting right by the TV watching and now are asking what that word is.

CNN is claiming that "They did not know she would use that" but I claim its a lie as everyone knows
there is a 30 to 60 second delay built into the live coverage so that broadcasters like CNN can quickly
suppress the audio (With a beep or silence) so that their audiences that include children are not
subjected to vulgar language. I am sure that I am not the only viewer that will be complaining.

I also submitted my complaint to CNN just for the record.

During the Women march in D.C. CNN showed live comments from celebrity women, during
Madonna comments she repeatedly dropped the F&*K bomb and it was never bleeped out. First of all
for what this march was representing, this is a very poor example for young girls as well as boys to
hear. CNN seems to do whatever they want without any repercussion. This could have been
prevented and was not, they should be held accountable. I am offended by this language myself and
feel that CNN needs to set a better standard of reporting than this.

same profane word at least 2 additional times.

This is unacceptable, and not the first time it has happened in the past few months. In an interview, a
guest on CNN used the word "n*****" which is absolutely despicable. Something must be done
regarding their "live" look-ins. I thought Janet Jackson took care of that for us, but I guess not.

word twice more before any action was taken. I do my best to screen my daughter from this type of

Description
How does Madonna get away with F-Bombs on Television? I find it very very very offensive and they
both should be fined a lot of money. Why is this being allowed on television and during the time when
kids can hear this? Just because they are famous and CNN and MSNBC allows it. Unacceptable!
This should never happen when so vulgar and inappropriate. How can you make sure this never
happens again?

On Sat 1-21-17 at approx. 248Pm while watching CNN Brooke Baldwin, Madonna stated words to the
effect "what the fuck." Approx. ten minutes later Madonna , with a microphone, said "Fuck you" ;
'Fuck you." I am offended that this "March" would include a foul mouthed celebrity,as a role model to
the marchers "Young Girls". The culture is on a slippery slope.

Description
At approximately 2:50 pm ET, Saturday, January 21st, on Cable Channel CNN, during the Live
broadcast of Madonna's speech at the Women's March in Washington DC, the word or derivatives of
the word "FUCK" was used at least twice in her speech prior to CNN breaking away and apologizing
for the language stating this is what happens during a LIVE broadcast. What happened to the 5,7, or
10 second delay, networks are suppose to use and monitor during live events to prevent such vulgar
profanity from airing? I find this highly frustrating and insulting. In the digital age, when one is
forced to pay for free programming and the end result is that you also receive other cable channels,
then they too should fall under the same indecency guidelines as broadcast television.
I am requesting a formal investigation into the indecency language broadcast live on CNN during
Madonna's speech.

(My information below reflects that a visit to family below in Nebraska, however, I live in Nevada).

Madonna's airing of multiple profanity's...CNN continued airing after 1 F-bomb or FUCK as is stated in
the 68 words that cannot be said on TV. CNN knew they were covering her and choose not to turn
down the volume not use the 15 sec rule. when your watching the coverage with young girls CNN
should,d be held liable and fine both CNN and Madonna. A constant theme of this is acceptable is
not

Violation of Program Content Regulations. It was late Saturday morning and I was watching CNN's
coverage of Madonna saying hateful things and insighting violence and she said multiple curse words
on CNN live, one of which was "fuck", I believe several times. Here is the replay:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-R4nb73JXg

Her language was vulgar, indecent and not appropriate for any viewing audience. Also why wasn't
CNN ready with a bleep? Shame on CNN. No one wants to hear those curse words. This is normal
language for Madonna, but that doesn't mean it is decent or normal for me. Thanks.

Description
I was listening to CNN on SiriusXM in the afternoon on 1/21/17 and CNN was broadcasting the
Women's March in DC. Madonna was on the stage speaking and CNN was allowing her speech to
run with no interruptions. She said the "f word" clearly and while surprised, I know that can happen on
live tv. Instead of cutting in and apologizing, CNN allowed Madonna to speak uninterrupted for
another 60-90 seconds where she clearly stated the "f word" two more times. Finally, CNN
interrupted and the commentators starting talking. I was appalled that CNN let that type of language
be broadcast without a 6 second delay or at least an interruption immediately following the first
instance of such language. My children are often in the car with me and I can now no longer listen to
CNN when they are in the car. That language and also how carelessly they handled the situation in
the middle of the afternoon was offensive to me.

last saturday 1/21/17, we witnessed in our family home, LIVE brooke baldwin's cnn coverage of the
women's march in washington dc. once cnn madonna unloaded her rants with one f bomb, they
continued to cover her LIVE. they had a reasonable opportunity to cut away. instead they ran their
LIVE coverage to then hear madonna drop 2 more f bombs and threatened to blow up the white
house. UNACCEPTABLE. what can the fcc do assure the american public that this type of coverage
does not repeat itself. this is despicable. i would support a fine and corrective action toward brooke
baldwin and ccnn.
