Fox Refuses to Pay Fine for Reality Show Sex Scenes

Fox Broadcasting said on Monday that it would not pay fines totaling $91,000 for broadcasting a reality show episode that included graphic sexual scenes at a bachelor party. Fox is also asking the Federal Communications Commission to reconsider the fines on the 13 owned and affiliated stations that broadcast the "Married by America" episode. "Fox believes that the FCC's decision in this case was arbitrary and capricious, inconsistent with precedent and patently unconstitutional," Scott Grogin, the company's senior vice president for corporate communications, said.
