Ms. Jackson bolted out of the scene and sped off in her chauffeured Maybach. A rep for Jackson and Dupri didn't return calls.~source

The court found that the FCC deviated from its nearly 30-year practice of fining indecent broadcast programming only when it was so "pervasive as to amount to 'shock treatment' for the audience."[Link]
