The Federal Communications Commission obtained written transcripts of Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show from NBC following complaints from a Republican congressman who claimed the Spanish-language performance might have broken federal broadcast standards, an FCC official revealed Wednesday.
Commissioner Anna Gomez disclosed that she examined the performance transcripts after discovering the agency had requested them from NBC, which is owned by Comcast. “I reviewed them carefully, and I found no violation of our rules and no justification for harassing broadcasters over a standard live performance,” Gomez stated.
The review came after a GOP legislator raised concerns that the Puerto Rican superstar’s Spanish-language performance during the halftime show could have contained content that violated broadcast decency standards.
