mtv is pulling 5 videos to late night airings due to content!
imdb.com
In yet another fallout from the Super Bowl halftime error, MTV has notified record companies that at least eight videos, including recent performances by Britney Spears, Maroon 5 and Blink 182, have been pulled from daytime airing to "overnight" programming because of sexual and political content. An MTV spokeswoman told today's (Monday) Los Angeles Times: "We support the creative community, but we have to take into account what's in the culture right now. ... It's part of our responsibility as broadcasters." ]
come on, whats so bad about Toxic and Feelin this? and it seems like they didn't touch those rap videos that have chicks grinding against the rappers.

Did anyone hear the announcement that Fuse offered the NFL to host future halftime shows?
I thought that was a brilliant move in the wake of Mtv's disaster.
What gets me is Mtv is responsible for this whole thing, and they are pulling videos as a result of their own halftime show. Hilarious.

Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing a few of these. Too bad I don't have a time machine.

You may go "whaaa???" but that's my point.
(Blurred) nudity, and at one pont, there's a girl dressed in red with horns.
Silly thing if it ends up getting pulled... oh well, I'll still have my DVD.

I suppose the morality police are going to use a half second flash of a tit to justify a massive crackdown on anything they deem unfit for our eyes.

what is the matter with the blink 182 video, i see it all the time on fuse and it does not look like there is anything wrong with it. So i guess no more rap videos i guess, ye hall, so no one ever wears any cloths on those videos.

This whole thing is growing to insane levels of absurdity. One semi-accidental boob flash and the whole world is becoming puritan. What's next?
Playboy Magazine to Begin Clothing Playmates
In a response to the backlash over the Janet Jackson breast gaffe at the Super Bowl Halftime Show, Playboy founder Hugh Hefner has announced that, starting with their April issue, all the magazine's pictorials will be non-nude.
"We've had a long history of celebrating the female form in nude pictorials and we make no apologies for it. But in today's climate, it just doesn't feel right to print a magazine with nude images," Hefner said in a press conference Monday.
In an effort to remain an "adult publication", Playboy will instead begin printing bloody, violent images from such popular events as backyard wrestling, bum fights, and war.
Competitors to Playboy are also considering changes to meet up with public demand. Penthouse will still shoot nude pictorials, but will digitally blur any offending body parts, while Hustler founder Larry Flynt said he will concede to public tastes by "not printing any pictures of ***** ******* on *****, unless they're ******* a ***** in the ***** or ****."
