NBC on Fonda's "C*nt": That's News, Folks!

Posted Feb 14th 2008 2:50PM by TMZ Staff

Despite Jane Fonda's little "rhymes-with-hunt" moment this morning, NBC says it has no plans to guard against similar morning emissions in the future.

A "Today" show rep tells TMZ, "It's a news show. There is no tape delay, and there won't be a tape delay." We also called "Good Morning America," where Diane Keaton infamously dropped an F-bomb on Diane Sawyer, and they've got no plans to delay at all.

As for CBS' "Early Show," they're also live, says a rep, and won't be using a delay. And we called the FCC a few times to see if they'll be penalizing NBC or requiring a tape delay because of Citizen Jane's slip, but so far, not a peep (or a bleep).

5. Did you say a "news" show????The only news shows are CNN, MSNBC. These are entertainment driven/Hollywood promo shows. The only news I saw yesterday was Uno the Beagle winning Westminster. Please don't insult peoples' intelligence. Katie Couric, Meredith Viera and the other retards are so in love with themselves. What is the difference between ET, Insider, Extra Access Hollywood and NBC,ABC,CBS NEWS Shows? the last three take themselves seriously.

12. She is a famous actress, AND she's Ted Turner's wife. She can do anything she wants. No way is the FCC gonna do anything about it. The laws we have dont apply to celebrities. They can do whatever they want with impunity.

13. I have, burned into my poor memory, the picture of Hanoi-Jane, strattling the barrel of a north viet-namese tank, Tokyo Rose would be proud !!!

14. Personally, I love it. Maybe Keaton and Fonda have decided to make statements about freedom of speech on the networks?
Or the lack thereof? Or perhaps they're verbally uninhibited?

Let's face it---cable stations can say anything and show just about anything--but the networks are censored and/or fined by the FCC. A slip, saying a "forbidden" word on live TV? Forget it, and get over it.
