Excerpt:

A federal appeals court on Monday threw
out a $550,000 indecency fine against
CBS Corp. for the 2004 Super Bowl half-
time show that ended with Janet Jackson's
breast-baring "wardrobe malfunction."

Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction"
in the 2004 Super Bowl halftime show
prompted changes to later halftime shows.

The three-judge panel of the 3rd U.S. Cir-
cuit Court of Appeals ruled that the Federal
Communications Commission "acted arbi-
trarily and capriciously" in issuing the fine
for the fleeting image of nudity.
