As long as it's pro-American or pro-government, etc., it is OK for it to have profanity, violence, and sex, or any combination of the aforementioned. Remember a couple years ago ABC showed the full unedited version of Saving Private Ryan on TV (and yet the FCC complained about a breast being shown for half a second this past year)? I loved that movie, but there's also more than enough swearing and gore. But nonetheless, it was shown during a national holiday because it embodied an accepted idea of brotherhood and sacrifice in this nation (I'm not objecting to these ideas at all). However, there'd be no way Fahrenheit 9/11 would be shown on September 11 of this year to celebrate its anniversary. It'd be too... anti-Bush-administration.
