Well this is fun. Now liberals are screaming “censorship!!” because a federal agency is doing exactly what its job is to do. Morans.

This is what government censorship looks like https://t.co/XUy4rIICiH — Lauren Duca (@laurenduca) May 5, 2017







Wahh!!!

Hi free speech warriors. This is what literal govt censorship looks like. Even the threat of investigation like this. https://t.co/pjSKkM6gVk — David M. Perry (@Lollardfish) May 5, 2017

EVEN CNN’s liberally biased media critic Brian Stelter had to admit it wasn’t “censorship”:

With all due respect, this is not "censorship," this is just the FCC doing what the FCC always does. Complaints are frequent, fines are rare https://t.co/xudz9itKMz — Brian Stelter (@brianstelter) May 5, 2017

Here’s more on what the FCC is doing:

Late night talk show host Stephen Colbert’s controversial joke about President Trump drew the attention of the Federal Communications Commission. The agency received “a number” of complaints about Colbert’s commentary earlier in the week, according to the FCC’s chief. FCC Chairman Ajit Pai promised to “take the appropriate action” following a comprehensive investigation of Colbert’s remarks. The FCC’s response will depend on whether Colbert’s remarks are considered “obscene.” “We are going to take the facts that we find and we are going to apply the law as it’s been set out by the Supreme Court and other courts and we’ll take the appropriate action,” he told Talk Radio 1210 WPHT Thursday.

This is their JOB, this is their entire REASON for existing!! LOL dumb liberals!

Broadcast television is governed by different rules depending on the time of day, Pai said Wednesday, prior to viewing Colbert’s comments. The FCC flags speech it considers “indecent” before 10 p.m., he told Fox Business Network, and looks for “obscene” content after that point. Colbert’s “The Late Show” airs at 11:35 p.m. ET on CBS. The agency’s website states that content must meet a three-tier Supreme Court test to be labeled “obscene.” “It must appeal to an average person’s prurient interest; depict or describe sexual conduct in a ‘patently offensive’ way; and, taken as a whole, lack serious literary, artistic, political or scientific value,” it reads.

Now it seems to me that it was late enough where Colbert doesn’t have to worry about anything. But even if they find against him, he just faces a fine. I think we should always be vigilant against government fascism, this ain’t it. This is just hurting liberal feeeeeelings.
