Janet Jackson’s Tit

CBS Stations Fined $550,000 for Jackson Breast Exposure (washingtonpost.com): “The Federal Communications Commission today slapped the CBS television stations owned by the network’s parent company with a record $550,000 fine for violating broadcast decency standards when CBS aired Janet Jackson’s breast-baring Super Bowl halftime show in January.”

They fine CBS for showing Janet Jackson’s boob yet have no problem with the networks showing graphic photographs of dead Iraqis.

What’s wrong with this picture?? If I had any kids, I’d rather that they saw Janet Jackson’s tit any day instead of the violent images shown on the network news programs.

We live in one crazy mixed-up world, folks.

[9/24/2004 Update: Oh...um...if you decide to visit the link above with the picture of Janet Jackson's tit, don't scroll all the way to the bottom of the page if hard core pornography bothers you. It turns out the Janet Jackson page has ties to some porn site and there's a hard core type photo-link at the foot of the page.]

[Which, incidentally, I'd still rather have kids looking at instead of pictures of dead Iraqis.]
