The Chilling Effect: CBS stations may delay 9/11 doc

Some CBS affiliates are getting cold feet about re-airing the excellent documentary, “9/11″ in its scheduled 9 p.m. slot and are reportedly going to move the show to 10 p.m. to avoid any repercussions from the FCC. (“Indecent” speech is just fine after 10.) 9/11 has aired twice without resulting in fines, but in the $325,000 fine era, stations are simply too worried about FCC’s inscrutable anti-profanity rules. There are swears heard in the program from people on the ground during the chaos who didn’t have the simple courtesy to say “Darn, the buildings are collapsing. Holy moley! Oh shoot, thousands of people are dead. My gosh!”
