Which Supreme Court Decision upheld the FCC’s right to mandate decency standards?

FCC v. Beach Communications, Inc.

FCC v. Fox Television Stations

FCC v. Pacifica Foundation

FCC v. AT&T, Inc.

Sagot :

Answer: FCC v. Pacifica Foundation

Explanation:

In 1973, a compliant was filed with the FCC by a man who had heard some bad language on the radio as he rode with his son. He filed a complaint with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to say that minors should not have to listen to such words on broadcast media and the FCC agreed.

It became a law suit that made it all the way to the Supreme Court in 1978 and ended up with the Supreme Court ruling that the FCC had the implied Constitutional power to regulate indecent speech which upheld the FCC’s right to mandate decency standards.
