Faux Morality.......
Why is it that Sean Hannity and co. at that soap box of a station are railing against the horrors of Janet Jackson's breast...
YET, when I watch that station I see replays of the incident time after time after time,
I see it in slow motion, and zoomed in.....

and this is during family viewing hours as well......

and I also heard the guy on the right on Fox and Friends (pun intended) saying E.D. was "knocked up" when referring to her pregnancy,
nice.

1. Why should a breast matter
when Fox puts on some of the worst and most offensive garbage on TV?

3. agree about their shows
the power of the almighty dollar.
and how else do explain The Simpsons and Fox?

who is E.D.,btw?

Fox is titillating their viewers without breaking the FCC rules.
wonder how many right-wingers are tuning in just to stare at Janet's breast...hmmm.

4. Don't knock The Simpsons.
That show has more real family values than a klaven of Republicans could ever conceive.

God Bless Matt Groening.

7. oh no
i'm not knocking The Simpsons, i love The Simpsons.

it is the contrast that i am speaking of and the power of money.
the conservative Fox news shows v. their entertainment shows, like night and day. if it wasn't for the shows popularity and the amount of money they make for the network, Murdoch would have gotten rid of them long ago.

11. Sorry, misconstrued the inference, I get it now.
You are correct, The Simpsons are liberal insurgents in Faux's Nazi fortress.

16. hmmm...
talk about 'damning with faint praise.'

not sure if she's fair, just profoundly ignorant. replacing her with a sneering blow-up doll would not seriously affect the content of that show... (used to watch it in 'know your enemy' mode some mornings, but now avoid in 'keep your breakfast down' mode...

5. I wonder why Republicans need so many Viagra ads.
And titillation like a bare breast. Could it be they have an abnormal amount of Penile Dysfunction? Maybe just a complex about size.

6. Self-righteous blowhards like Hannity love stuff like this
It gives them an opportunity to talk about how MTV and the rest of the liberal media are leading your children down the road to premarital sex and hardcore drug use that will ultimately end with the poor little tykes selling their souls to Satan.

Then they can go, "Oh please think of the children, and vote for your local right-wing sexually-repressed fundamentalist at the next election, and together we can make chastity belts mandatory for everyone under 25!"

P.S. Praise "Bob"!

8. I believe these blowhards are the same people
Edited on Wed Feb-04-04 04:33 PM by Ilsa
who are frequently caught with hard core porn in their closets and trying to have sex with 16 year olds.

(Edited to clarify subject.)

10. Torquemada was the same way
Loved to hear steamy made-up stories about women having 'relations' with the devil. Seemed to enjoy those 'confessions' very, very much...

Or so I've heard.

12. Hannity is railing about morality.....
and his rant is filled with "libs" and "liberals" etc.
his implication being only Democrats have premarital sex,
or extra marrital affairs.......

facts are sooooooooo irrelevant to these people....
didn't they learn anything after the spotlight was turned on them post Monica Lewinsky?
