So what was the first outrageous moment in that halftime show? Was it: 1) the first crotch grab, 2) the first act of simulated sex, or 3)Jackson's exposed breast? And if you were offended by either of the first two, why was your television set still on for the third?
I agree that CBS, MTV, Jackson, et al should be fined up the wazoo, but you also have a responsibility to change the channel. So when you read Jackson's apology, maybe you also owe an apology to your kids for not having the guts or the self control to turn the thing off!!!!

My kids were not watching. But rest assured, if they were, the channel would have changed or the television would have been turned off at the first crotch grab. But thanks for venting. Hope you feel a little better.

If I paid for MTV and then complained about it, sure --- I have the right to not buy it --- and I don't buy it. If the Superbowl had advertised that there was going to be live nudity, then I could change the channel or forbid my kids to watch it. This was all about deception --- putting this kind of raunchy act into something that is advertised as wholesome --- football.
