M.I.A. may be stuck with Super Bowl fine
M.I.A. will end up paying any fines imposed on NBC as a result of her middle finger launch during Sunday's Super Bowl halftime show, website TMZ reported Monday, quoting "sources with direct knowledge" of the incident.
CBS was hit with a $550,000 FCC fine after Janet Jackson's infamous wardrobe malfunction, but that fine was thrown out by a federal appeals court. Sources told TMZ the NFL wants to send a message to performers.
Several parent groups are up in arms, including the Parents Television Council, which released a statement saying, "It is unfortunate that a spectacular sporting event was overshadowed once again by broadcasting the selfish acts of a desperate performer."
