Read this, and pay close attention to the following line...

the scene was no racier than what's routinely seen on soap operas. But ABC said it received complaints from viewers who thought it was inappropriate.

What can I say...they have the right to complain, but do they have enough responsibility to handle it? In this case, no. ;)
 
Television can't properly overtake parental authority unless we allow racy & sexy 24/7/365.4 on every show & every channel. God forbid some parent thinks sports is okay to watch & assumes there won't be nudity & adultery as part of the action.

The only way I would think you could draw such a conclusion is if you hadn't seen television in at least twenty years. :shrug:
 
Congress is considering dramatically boosting fines for indecency. The House last month overwhelmingly passed a bill to raise the maximum fine from $32,500 to $500,000. A similar bill has been introduced in the Senate but has not had a hearing.
I'd rather have them going against 'reality TV' where people get to choke on live insects or bob for apples in vats of blood. It was a bare back folx!

Nothing to see here!

I'm fairly certain Janet was the only bare boob I've seen at a football game, in my life. In all honesty, I didn't watch it so I didn't "see it" but I do have a photo of it somewhere. I'm also relatively certain that there hasn't been too many adulterous acts on the sidelines either.

Really? You need to take in a few CFL games.

True enough, but given the state of television lately I was surprised that anyone was surprised.

Can you say Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders?
 
How about beer commercials?

I personally prefer watching one of the Discovery channels or maybe TLC or History & right in the middle of a learning experience we get to hear about Bob & his happy wife.
