Was listening to C-SPAN, they said his written statement for the record of the hearing was very offensive. "I would like to state, under oath," and then two words they wouldn't repeat.
Doing a Google search of "SBF Fuck You" shows he's already told regulators and his lawyers to go F themselves, I'm guessing he said the same to the US Congress.
No it wouldn't. C-Span isn't broadcast for one thing, for a second it's newsworthy, and for a third they could just say/write 'I f**ed up'
The US is so babyish about this stuff. One day people shout about free speech absolutism, another day they hold mock fainting fits over common swear words that virtually everyone uses. In other countries this would not merit anything more than an arched eyebrow on the part of a newsreader.
I came to realize this when the head of the school our son went to called me at home to say that my son had used an inappropriate word in school. He wouldn't say what the word was, even when prompted several times, as though he was unable to utter it. Then finally he resorted to spelling out 'f u c k', so I said 'Oh, you mean 'fuck'' and he nearly lost it. I explained to him that my son learned pretty much all of his slang from his schoolmates since he'd only been in the country less than a year so probably the problem was on his end and left it at that. He never did call again...
very true, but you guys share a common language, a foreign policy and some cultural artifacts like the shame of using some bad words. Fuck comes to mind but I'm honestly more disturb by the N word. Like y'all call it.
At the same time, none of my business.
Forbes also published his hair on the cover [0] with glowing statements next to his own quote of saying he doesn't know anything about stuff. Along with Elizabeth Holmes. Both had VERY easily detectable scams for their bullshit.
Maybe not! There was that case in 2003 where Bono of U2 said “fucking brilliant” when accepting an award, and the FCC ruled that it was not a violation, because it was not in the context of intercourse. But then later reversed itself.
