I agree and I'm sure most Americans do, nobody ever complains about or even mentions the tits on The Sopranos or... uh... I don't really know anything about TV except for the Discovery and History Channels, and they're Canadian channels, but there MUST be other shows with boobies, on those cable channels. I wouldn't worry too much about it, it's more a laughable relic from a prude past, unchanged because of no immediate need, than a sign of any national emotional pathology. |

I dono if that's totally true - remember the total furore when Janet Jackson's tit popped out that one time? Over here it would have been giggled over and shown on one of those crappy TV_Clips shows endlessly... over there, it seemed to cause some kind of National Outcry! |

That's because the conservative media has somehow accumulated a lot of power and like to make a big fuss. I believe a very vocal and VERY obnoxious minority was disturbed, and the fuss took on a life of its own. With these Paris Hilton and Janet Jackson and whoever stories, I dunno, I'm Canadian, but it seems I can feel almost the entirety of North America groan at this shit. This kind of thing is a sensationalistic joke more than a legit concern. You see sober minds condemning the condemners on the internet, you see it in the papers, you MIGHT even see it on ''news'' roundtables on CNN if the powers that be feel like an argument with stacked odds would be good TV, but you can bet SOMEBODY with a lot of power wants to make it seem like a very big deal. It really isn't. They just WILL. NOT. STOP. TALKING ABOUT IT. |

Rupert Murdoch I suspect sets the tone for most of the conservative media in America. He's Australian. I think there a lot of Rupert Murdoch's in the world. Ophecks has got the idea. I'd listen to him...Seems like people have got America all figured out by reinforcing their own prejudices. "a laughable relic from a prude past, unchanged because of no immediate need" I like that. I suspect its very true. Habits are hard to break and change scares people. Some family's hate when their kids say fart but are Ok when they say damn. I think of America has having its own set of pet peeves handed down through generations like everywhere else. |
