PTC FOLLOWS FCC'S LEAD, FILES COMPLAINT ON NBC'S LAS VEGAS
[SOURCE: Broadcasting&Cable, AUTHOR: John Eggerton]
Buoyed by the Federal Communications Commission's issuance of a forfeiture order against ABC stations over a nude scene it complained about in NYPD Blue, the Parents Television Council filed an indecency complaint against NBC stations over the Feb. 15 episode of Las Vegas and a scene featuring some naked women running around in the casino with "their buttocks … visible, and only shadows obscure their breasts and groins." Las Vegas is a 10 p.m. show, but it airs at 9 p.m. in the Central and Mountain time zones, as did NYPD Blue.
