Tha boob (as in dumbbell) Jackass is off the Grammys but Dimmerlake is still scheduled.

I'll just continue to ignore 'regular' TV.

You have to look at this whole situation from the Jackson family perspective. At least the Jacko pedophile story no longer dominates the news.

I'm still waiting to see if McDonald's plans to keep Timberlake as spokesperson and exemplar of the best in Today's Youth.

[Old Grumpy]

"I am told, she was advised by her brother Michael Jackson "to stop apologizing already."

Now there's a good one to be giving her advice. Listen to Michael, honey. Ha!

The pressure placed on CBS is working......Janet Jackass was pushed off the show. Dimmerlake is still scheduled. Now is the time to put more pressure on CBS.


Tell CBS-TV that audiences don't like to be used, to be manipulated by depraved career-obsessed entertainers with
CD's to sell, who expose themselves on primetime to hype their sorry careers......and then lie about it.


This is not about "exposing just one breast." It's the co-opting of audiences for personal profit as Jackass and Dimmerlake did.

We are tired of obsessed, success-driven entertainers, so depraved, they would do anything to boost their careers.



If Jackass and Dumberlake thought fornicating a dog at half time would sell CDs, they'd do it in a nanosecond.


If CBS and the rest of the brain-dead Hollywarped types continue to defend Jackass and Dimmerlake's lies, we shall take further action.

[Liz]

That's a good one........nice zinger.

[Liz]

Temporarily.

At least the Jacko pedophile story no longer dominates the news.

Last night on Saturday Night Live during the news segment, they did a bit about this, talking about Justin Timberlake being saying he didn't know and was furious.

The bit ended with the reporter saying, "So who is surprised at a member of the Jackson family taking advantage of younger white male?"

[EggsAckley]

This is great news! Patti is ever so much more talented than Janet, and a really good person.

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

Good. I like Patti Labelle better than Jackson.

[xJones]

Jackson, after much thought, decided she'd said she was sorry enough already and declined to be on the show.

Well, I can't argue that she's exceptionally sorry, but she and Michael must use the same plastic surgeons. Facially, they now look so much alike, except he is whiter.

[EggsAckley]

"I don't read, but when I do read, I read you."

Well, one thing good about Paris, she's consistent. (consistently stupid.)

[mewzilla]

I thought Luther was sick. Guess he could've gotten better in a hurry, huh?

[Liz]

Heheh......good one. SNL hits the truth.

"I'm still waiting to see if McDonald's plans to keep Timberlake as spokesperson and exemplar of the best in Today's Youth."

I sent an email to McD's expressing my outrage that they have Timberlake as a spokesman, and they sent back this:

"Thank you for taking the time to contact McDonald's to share your concerns with us.

While McDonald's had nothing to do with the planning or execution of the Super Bowl's Half Time activities, there was obviously an inappropriate incident. Everyone involved has said it was an unfortunate mistake, and their apologies are certainly in order. However, we appreciate the time you've taken to contact us and want you to know your comments will be shared with our Marketing Department.

Again, thank you contacting McDonald's."

To them , it was "obviously inappropriate", "an unfortunate mistake" and the apologies were "in order". No action taken, however.

Well, it has been my "mistake" to ever eat there, my "apologies" that I did, and "in order" to make it right, I will never set foot in there again.

[MegaSilver]

Justin Timberlake however has decided to go for it. The ‘NSync singer will read some kind of apology to the nation so he can make a cameo on the Grammy show.

He owes Jackson an apology as well.

[proust]

"This time, even I agree with Jackson. What do people want from this woman? Blood? "

How about just going away? Is that too much to ask?

[MegaSilver]

My letter:

Dear Sir/Madame:

I am extremely disappointed to learn that Justin Timberlake will be allowed to participate in the Grammy Awards.

Janet Jackson has apologized over and over, and thus requiring both her and Timberlake to apologize again to appear on the Grammys is completely unfair. And in either case, I frankly don't care how much they apologize. They both need to be unconditionally barred from the Grammys.

Please reconsider forcing Timberlake off as well as Jackson. Otherwise, you can rest assured that this viewer will go out of his way to avoid tuning in to CBS.

And in this, I am not alone.

[Indie]

I'll just continue to ignore 'regular' TV.

Same for me and it deserves to be said again. I will continue to ignore TV.
