<DIV></DIV>John, I agree with you about MTV. MTV and lots of others have pushed the
<DIV></DIV>envelope with regards to decency. I also agree that the incident was not an
<DIV></DIV>accident. As a matter of fact, I saw a part of Janet's apology this morning.
<DIV></DIV>She stated that it was not meant to offend and she did indeed change the way
<DIV></DIV>the performance was supposed to end, etc., etc.
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>I am going to file a complaint with the AFA. But not so much because of this
<DIV></DIV>one incident. It is because of the low level entertainment has reached
<DIV></DIV>period. What happened Sunday was not good by any means; but I find the opinions
<DIV></DIV>and actions of television networks, the music industry bigwigs, the Grammy
<DIV></DIV>Association, etc. all "hypocritical". I find it hard to believe they are so
<DIV></DIV>"outraged" at this because of what I see and hear on a regular basis on TV and the
<DIV></DIV>radio. Madonna and Brittney lip locking, Christina Aguilera's nakedness and
<DIV></DIV>super-sensual videos, Madonna's naked behind showing, (thong thing going on)
<DIV></DIV>the explicit lyrics in gangsta rap, contestants on Big Brother having sex on
<DIV></DIV>the show, ...need I go on? These people are not shocked. They are making BIG
<DIV></DIV>$$$ from it...and it will continue downhill unless we make some noise about
<DIV></DIV>it. This type of behavior is considered "normal" nowadays and it will get
<DIV></DIV>worse because everyone wants to outdo the other guy because garbage sells in
<DIV></DIV>America! The filthier/over the top it is, the more attention it gets. If we take
<DIV></DIV>a stance against it, stop buying the junk, stop letting our children watch and
<DIV></DIV>listen to it - get on our soap box and voice our opinions about it, sign
<DIV></DIV>petitions for decency - I mean MAKE SOME NOISE, maybe those of us who are
<DIV></DIV>pro-decency ("the squeaky wheel") will get some attention and prayerfully get some
<DIV></DIV>things changed. Just "my" opinion folks.
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>God bless you abundantly today and always!
<DIV></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>P.S. - I don't think being a "Jackson" helped her any either.
