11. Not by the FCC.
He is not a "Broadcaster", he is a supplier of programming.
Look at it like this, does the FCC have jurisdiction over the NFL? Aaron Spelling's production company? MTM? DesiLu? No, they don't.

When we all got "treated" to the sight of Janet's boobie, it wasn't the NFL, who was sponsoring the show, who got ripped-off by Mikey Powell, hell, it wasn't even the network, but the individual STATIONS that got hammered.

He owns no over-the-air stations, thus the FCC has no control over him. Their recourse would be against stations who carried the "700 Klub".
