There were already "family friendly" guidelines in place in the agreements local stations have to sign to cover high school sports, and similar rules built in to the various NCAA levels of coverage. There's always the legit risk of some cameraman scanning the crowd for that "crowd energy" footage and some kid getting domed up at the top the bleachers goes out on air(that's actually happened at high school games). That Gamecocks thing made a lot of people heated, and it still does even now.
Don't let the growth in GA and the Carolinas fool you, this is still the south.
