CBS Corp. filed an appeal of the Federal Communications Commision’s (FCC) fine against 20 CFS stations for the airing of the flashing of Janet Jackson’s breat during the 2004 Super Bowl. Each station has been fined $27,500, and the total is therefore $550,000.

The FCC has been assessing larger fines for indecency. The largest came in March 2006, which the CBS show “Without a Trace” was fine $3.6 million. CBS says it has taken steps to ensure that something like this will not happen again.
