One Second of Jackson's Nipple = $183,333
July 31, 2006
CBS paid the fine, but is appealing. They said the FCC is stupid. The FCC says CBS is indecent-immoral-and-out-of-touch-with-America.
We really have little to add to this maelstrom of mediocrity. But let’s do the math.
CBS paid $550,000 to the FCC because of Janet Jackson’s breast-flashing episode during the Super Bowl.
The “episode” lasted about 3 seconds. So that means Janet Jackson’s nipple is worth $183,333 per second.
If she ever decided to throw in the towel on the singing career, well, she’s got a very valuable asset.
