QCC Overturns Obscenity Ruling

Commission Fails to See What the #$*%&#& Problem Is.

During a normal production of the Quack City Music Awards, the spectacle is usually on what the nominees are wearing, and rarely on what anyone has to say.

That changed last spring, when U2 frontman Bono took the stage to accept an award for "Best Humanitarian Trip to Sub-Saharan Africa." His acceptance speech was broadcast locally on WQAK.

QCC Chairman Michael Powell argues his case with 7 words you can now say on TV.

 

"This is #$(*@& awesome" the Irish rocker proclaimed, prompting immediate calls for action from concerned viewers to the Quack City Communications Commission (QCC). After nearly a year of investigating, a surprise ruling from the QCC:

The remark was not obscene.

"I don't know what everyone's #$(*@& problem is" says QCC chairman Bob Carlin, son of entertainer George Carlin.

"Y'all just need to get off my **#&@." He added. "So what if he said #$(*@&. I say #$(*@& all the time. So #$(*@& anyone who doesn't like it."

Local parenting groups lament the ruling. "It's just so irresponsible for Carlin to let this go out on the airwaves for impressionable young children to hear. What is our city coming to?" says Tina Sarandon, chair of the Quack City Parents for the Protection of our Children Lest they Become Godless Heathens Living on the Streets Playing Guitar While the Parents are Left With the Bills from 9 Semesters at Brown. (QCPPCLBGHLSPGWPLWB9S@B).

"I hope Mr. Bob Carlinl has kids that grow up to be completely amoral psychotics." Sarandon adds.

"What a stupid #$(*@& that guy is."
