Brought to you by the "People Who Want To Ruin Everything" Coalition.

May they all get splinters.

Gee, Brent Bozell and his crowd are jumping in again - with the NAGs, no less.

I just might make the time to watch this... :)

"What purpose does the special serve except to overly sexualize women and use this to bolster the networks' demographics for young men?"

None, so I won't be watching it. My first instinct is to say, if you don't like it, then use the channel changer. Then I remember how far TV has fallen and I think "Gee, maybe I should write a letter of protest too."

"What purpose does the special serve except to overly sexualize women and use this to bolster the networks' demographics for young men?" they asked in a joint letter to CBS President Leslie Moonves."

Well Duhhhhhh....that's the same purpose 75% of prime time network television serves. Shushhhhhhhhhh, OK NOW gang I'm going to let you in on a little secret but you've got to promise not to tell anyone - {sex sells} - now remember this is our little secret.

Victoria's Secret on TV 'soft porn'?
Why are they targeting only this? They got something against Victoria's Secret?
If they want to target something that gets way more airtime why don't they target the men and women's underwear and women's bra commercials?
A fine time to start hollering about "soft porn" when I still remember, vividly, a certain buxomous woman in her Platex "Cross your heart" bra on television years ago.
For more "soft porn"...(especially with the appropriate sultry looks from certain models)...brought to you by Hanes underwear...

CBS is giving the show a TV-14 rating, an indication that the material may be unsuitable for children age 14 and under.

Isn't it funny about ratings? Those under 14 probably couldn't care less about the show. It's those 14 and older who are going to be ogling the models.

I love Victoria's Secret lingerie. I'll be watching tonight, because I have been holding onto a VS gift certificate for months. I want to see what they have coming out.

The VS women look like female impersonators to me. They look no different than males I've seen on seedy street corners who dress as women and attract male "straight" customers. This phenomenon confirms my suspicion that many men enjoy looking at men but to make it culturally acceptable they enjoy looking at men as artificial women.
