MTV apologises for airing Lady Gaga’s swear words
January 12th, 2010 - 2:07 pm ICT by ANI ( Leave a comment )London, January 12 (ANI): MTV chiefs have been forced to issue an apology after airing Lady Gaga’s foul mouth tirade in the UK.
The singer resorted to swear words during her performance at the Isle of MTV music festival last year.
The channel broadcast the event without chopping off the offensive words, thereby leaving an enraged group of executives at broadcast regulator Ofcom, reports the Daily Star.
Bosses at Ofcom accused MTV of violating broadcasting guidelines with the explicit broadcast.
They said in a statement: “The most offensive language must not be broadcast before the watershed.” (ANI)
