SUPREME COURT EXTENDS DEADLINE FOR SEEKING PROFANITY RULING REVIEW
[SOURCE: Broadcasting&Cable, AUTHOR: John Eggerton]
The Supreme Court has given the solicitor general an extra month to decide whether to ask for high-court review of the federal appeals court decision that the FCC has not sufficiently justified its crackdown on cussing. The deadline for petitioning for Supreme Court review had been Sept. 2, but the solicitor general's office last week asked for an extension until Oct. 4, and the court granted it.
