I downloaded a clip from usenet that had nudity in it yet it had the E! channels logo - I didn't think basic cable had nudity! Was this perhaps from a foreign feed?
Nudity on the E! entertainment network??

Cable TV isn't regulated as much as broadcast television. It's very possible for nudity to be shown on basic cable.

I do recall a previous thread on this when it actually happened. Someone was watching Wild On and noticed they didn't blur out any nudity or anything. Not calling repost necessarily, but there is previous information in ATOT about it.

For the most part they tile out nudity on E!, but whatever you're describing might have slipped through. I have seen a very brief Nicole Ritchie nip slip on E!.
Cable TV isn't regulated at all. They could get away with nudity and profanity but it would cost them advertisers, so they don't.

Thats why it has been going further and further. Like how Comedy Central plays uncensored movies at 2 in the morning. HBO shows whatever too because they dont worry about advertisers.

I always thought HBO was an extra channel to pay for.. atleast it is here.
HBO is a pay channel, which are not regulated by the FCC since it's not on the "public airwaves', but they are trying to regulate these channels as well. Which is why we need to get rid of GWB and his religious rite, enough is enough of them telling us what we can and can't watch based on their 'religious values'.

When channel surfing, I've run across some really nice titty shots on E! on more than one occasion.
I've got most channels blocked out on my cable service because they are pretty much useless for me, but not E!

E! and Comedy Central aren't on the public airwaves either. Cable\satellite exclusive channels = pay channels.Originally posted by: BostonRedSox

The RR has been trying to stiffen morality laws for years with little progress. The LL has been trying to stiffen saftey laws and nanny-state laws for years with BIG progress.
Not to mention, in my life, who tries to tell me what to do with my earnings garners a LOT more negative feelings than who tries to control how much sex I see on TV.
