OUTRAGE AT CBS AFTER JANET BARES BREAST DURING DINNER HOUR; SUPER BOWL SHOW PUSHES LIMITS
**Exclusive**
Top CBS executives approved a musical skit where Janet Jackson would expose her breast during the MTV-produced Super Bowl half-time concert, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
"The decision to go forward went to the very top of the network," a well-placed source explained from New York.
The groundbreaking scene came during the most-watched television broadcast of the year -- and during the dinner hour for the nation's west coast viewers.
In a press release before Sunday's game, CBS's sister outlet. [VIACOM's] MTV promised "Janet's Shocking Moments."
"I'll get you naked by the end of this song," sang performer Justin Timberlake, moments before he ripped off Jackson's top, exposing a bare breast -- the nipple covered by a tassel.
CBS's main New York switchboard was immediately bombarded with complaints about the stunt, netowrk sources said late Sunday.

This off topic, but does anyone have the final score of the third quarter? I had to step out and want to see if any of my pool numbers hit.
To: Zechariah11
From what I've heard attributed to Miss Spears no one could see if he had anyway.
I'm more offended he was there period than by the breast.
To: Mr. Mojo
Well when your career is 'sagging', guess you gotta pull a stunt like that. Pun intended of course :)

"She is stupid and the top brass at CBS should be tarred, feathered and run out of town for allowing her to do it."
I agree--BUT years ago they never would have allowed it because tarring and feathering would be the least that would have happened to them.
They do it today secure in the knowledge that nothing will happen to them or their business. Displaying this pigs breast in a society for pigs is no big deal. Heck this is predictable and it WAS predicted back in the 60's when the our culture began decaying and the pigs began taking over.

Now, for the question everyone is thinking, but afraid to ask: "Does Janet Jackson really exist -- or, is that really just Michael in drag?" (As for the breast: Hey, I hear you can do a LOT with plastic surgery these days.)

Kid Rock blew everyone else away anyway. He's also an avid supporter of our troops.

somehow i think the troops would rather watch janet doing her thing than kid rock.

You know, I haven't watched a football game all the way through since I played clarinet in the high school band in 1972.
I'm pretty sure I didn't watch the game then.
I was watching Ellen D. in the horn section.

The performers at half time were hot- about 10 years ago. I'm surprised that Janet wasn't in a wheel chair or using a walker. Middle aged women flashing is just gross.
And P-Diddly Daddy? I thought he was working Branson.

I was watching Ellen D. in the horn section. You were watching Ellen Degenerate?

Figures. What I saw of it disgusted me so I changed the channel. CBS/Football should know better than to put a Jackson on the stage during half time. Frankly, I am sick of that to begin with.

The network of William Paley is a laughing stock -- and not the good kind.

Just another thread of evidence that our country is in a downward spiral. When the barbarians sieze control, the Body of Christ will be blamed for the downfall of this once great nation just as they were when Rome fell to the Goths.

And who was the other rapper, not PDiddy, that kept grabbing his crotch.
That was pretty disgusting too, IMHO.
