BEIJING, May 5 (Xinhuanet) -- The Supreme Court Monday ordered a federal appeals court to revisit its ruling throwing out a 550,000-U.S. dollar-fine against CBS over pop singer Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction.

    The high court last week ruled in CBS' favor, saying the Federal Communications Commission had strayed from its long-held approach of applying identical standards to words and images when reviewing complaints of indecency. The FCC had fined the network over Jacksons' breast-baring performance at the 2004 Super Bowl.

    The high court, after the Supreme court ruling, directed the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia to consider reinstating the 550,000-dollar-fine that the Federal Communications Commission imposed on CBS.

    In a statement, CBS said the Supreme Court's decision was not a surprise given last week's ruling and expressed confidence the court will again find the incident was not and could not have been anticipated by the network, according to AP.
