So, in your view, we do nothing?
An assault on the unsuspecting public without any form of warning, meaning we are subject to any trash that anyone wants to throw at us as we innocently watch the superbowl with our families.
Of course all those who enjoy such entertainment cannot understand the concerns of those who expect this event to be suitable for the entire family. Not all of us enjoy seeing crotch holding, lyrics with sex talk, and exposure of a breast at mealtime.
In my view - the execs at CBS are pornography addicts and plan on pushing lewdness into every aspect of media programming. My question is WHY??????

That's not what I said. In fact I said that, if anyone, WE THE PEOPLE, COULD have an impact were we to bombard the NFL, Viacom, and their sponsors with our rebuke. I DID say that I doubted the FedGov would do anything.
BTW, I agree with your sentiments 100%.

Kind of makes the liberals' pat answer to us "prudes" - "if you don't like it, change the channel" - a little outdated now.

If NFL consents to such half time shows in the future, then they better throw up the parental guide initial "R" at the top of the show to, at the very least, give parents and anyone else, the fair warning to turn the channel.
I'm not surprised if I see something like this on a cable channel, but sure don't expect it during a commercial network show in the early evening.
Also was ticked off at Pepsi's commercial featuring kids that had been caught downloading music. I'm glad FCC is investigating. If some folks don't, then it's time for them to rally and have their friendly congresscritter change the laws.
