And who wouldn’t want to start their day explaining to their 6 year old what that word meant?
No, really, we’re sorry, get over it already.
How much does that guy working the ten second delay get paid? I think I want his job, of course only about half the show would make it out over the air...

Time to complain to the FCC. The libs do it daily. We need to take full advantage of our outrage over this.

Apparently, that’s still one of the words from George Carlin’s monologue that can’t be used on TV.

"We would do nothing to offend the audience, so please accept that apology." Huh? Since when?

NBC called it "a slip" and said they did not mean to offend audiences.To have Hanoi Jane on TV is offensive IMHO. Why wasn't she with the Code Pinkies?

Someone tuning in at just the right moment might have gotten the impression that the topic of discussion was the Clinton campaign.

Jane has been a disgrace to her entire family...those before and after her...ever since she came of age.

Jane Fonda is dead. She was hung by the neck for treason decades ago.

"Then I came to New York to see Eve and it changed my life." She has got to be the most faddish shallow person in the world. Everything changes her life. The anti-war movement. Exercise. The V monologs. She's like a goose. She wakes up in a new world every day.

"We would do nothing to offend the audience, so please accept that apology."Nothing, that is, except devote an entire discussion, in public, to the profane subject of this supposed artistic theatrical expression.
