FCC Clears Bad Bunny Halftime Show of Rule Violations: Report

Background on the Investigation

Following Bad Bunny’s halftime show, concerns were raised about potential breaches of broadcast decency standards. Critics argued that his performance could contain inappropriate content, prompting calls for an FCC inquiry.

Content Review Findings

• The analysis focused on the use of explicit lyrics during the show.

• The FCC reviewed a translated transcript of the performance.

The preliminary findings indicated that the performance adhered to established guidelines for decency.
