November 7, 2018 --In another broadsided shellacking defeated Democratic Senator candidate hopeful, Beto O'Rourke, the Federal Communications Commission today fined O'Rourke a whopping $90,000.00 for last night's public broadcast of the classless F' bomb on nationwide television.
Acting on listener complaints, the FCC hammered the defeated Texas Senator candidate Included in the commission's notice of liability--which cites 18 alleged indecency violations. Along with fines and possible criminal prosecution that his family will not be able to sweep under the rug this time.
O'Rourke violated the broadcast media new zero-tolerance decency standards.
In 1934, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) was established to “regulate interstate and international communications by radio, television, wire, satellite, and cable. The FCC’s jurisdiction covers the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. possessions.”
In the early days of radio, the FCC’s major weapon for deterring indecency was to revoke broadcast licenses. This meant that radio stations and their advertisers had to create their own censorship standards to ensure they didn’t ruffle the FCC’s feathers and get their station pulled from the airwaves.
That was then, and this is now. Today, the FCC levies fines against broadcasters who air indecent content over the air. In fact, the FCC first started using fines as a deterrent in 1975 when they fined radio broadcaster Pacifica Foundation for airing comedian George Carlin’s “Seven words you can’t say on television” routine.
But the FCC doesn’t just dole out fines for airing offensive content. They have a whole set of rules that affect everyone from TV broadcasters to phone companies, and they’re willing to fine anyone who steps out of line.
Beto pay up or Beto go to jail ...

whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
