As Super Bowl LIX approaches, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr has a simple request: "no wardrobe malfunctions." In a recent interview on "The Story," Carr, overseeing his first Super Bowl as chairman, expressed his hope for a family-friendly broadcast of the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles.
Carr's lighthearted plea harkens back to the 2004 Super Bowl halftime show controversy involving Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake. The incident, which resulted in a massive public outcry and an FCC investigation, remains a significant moment in Super Bowl history.
While the 2004 incident led to a substantial fine for CBS (later overturned), Carr's comments highlight the ongoing sensitivity surrounding live broadcasts and the desire to maintain appropriate content for a wide audience. This year's Super Bowl will be streamed on Tubi.
