Where does the money go?


Recently the F.C.C. has been making some dough by fining broadcasting outlets for airing stuff that "breaks the rules".

I was just wondering, into what government account does this cash go into? Do we get a tax cut?

Okay, I know that is silly, but I do wonder about these things on a snowy Friday.

Here's the latest:

THE FCC IS EXPECTED TO slap News Corp. with a $1.2 million fine for a 2003 episode of "Married by America." The issue is nudity, although some images were pixelated. This is the second indecency notice this week. On Tuesday, it handed down fines to ABC stations for an "NYPD Blue" episode in 2003.
