The FCC is re-examining a 2004 Superbowl incident involving Janet Jackson.

The commission will reportedly review the 2004 incident in which the entertainer’s breast was exposed during a half-time show.

Press Release Service – Wired PR News – The U.S. Federal Communications Commission is reportedly set to review a case involving the 2004 controversial incident in which singer Janet Jackson’s breast was exposed during her performance with Justin Timberlake at a Superbowl half-time show. As reported by Reuters, the FCC recently requested that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit review a case against CBS, citing their recklessness in not utilizing available technology to prevent the incident from being broadcast on live television.

The FCC is quoted by Reuters as stating in a court document, “The evidence in this case strongly suggests that CBS had access to video delay technology at the time of the 2004 Super Bowl.”
