Federal prosecutors filed suit against News Corp.’s Fox Television in four jurisdictions to force payment of fines for a 2003 broadcast that featured strippers at bachelor and bachelorette parties.

The actions in Tennessee, West Virginia, Iowa and the District of Columbia came after the Federal Communications Commission rejected Fox’s appeal of proposed indecency fines for the show “Married by America,” saying the company violated a 25-page length limit for pleas.
