Janet Jackson Poll

No, not a parent. I find it disgusting that overshadows the New England Patriots winning Super Bowl 38. This game is evolving more and more into just a corporate media whore fest, when more than half of the viewers "only watch it for the commercials".

The only thing you can say positive is that since most of the commericals were awful, as they were for the last few years,
that maybe it will get back to being about the game.

I actually found it worse that they cut off from the end of the celebration/awards to show survivor.
If I wasn't a Patriots fan, I would have wished the game had gone to OT, and had it last another 10 or
so minutes. That would have really pissed off CBS.
 
No, and I am not a parent but i understand the parents point of view.

So in other words is it possible to be on both sides of the fence on this issue?

as for a MAJOR problem? no, and im not a parent.. but it wasnt appropriate especially during family viewing time. Thats something more appropriate for mtv awards or something, not a superbowl where ppl gather with family to watch.
 
Who gives a sh!t. It was a boob. Big fvcking deal, there's about one of them for every person on the planet, they'll be visible once and a while. Oh no.

Yes, and I'm not a parent.

FCC guidelines exist for a reason, people should be able to know what to expect from the shows they watch.

It's particularly a problem for parents trying to govern what their children see/hear, but anybody with half a brain should be able to understand the problem (whether they're a parent or not).

Yes, and I'm a parent.

I consider it a form of artistic freedom. She had something covering her nipple, indicating that it planned, with modesty being considered. Life goes on.
 
when appropriately rated or expected, i have no problem with anything on tv. when its unexpected, yes i have a problem.
 
Don't see it as a major problem. Highly inappropriate, yes, and definitely against FCC regulations.

And, yes, I'm a parent and my child was with me when it happened.
 
if by incident you mean the entire half-time show, then yes it was incredibly harmful and almost caused the entire world to drink the kool-aid to end the pain.
