Jack Todd is a sports columnist for the Montreal Gazette, and he had the following to say, re: the Superbowl halftime show.
"All boobs, all the time: You have to wonder what kind of warped zealots run the Federal Communications Commission south of the border. Look, I'm as allergic to parts of the Jackson family anatomy as the next person - but have these people really never seen a breast?
Was it a publicity stunt when Janet Jackson had Justin Timberlake bare her breast at the Super Bowl? Like, duh. Does it matter? Every night of the week, television viewers across this continent are treated to exploding heads, "reality" show contestants eating bat guano - and just this week on one of the better dramas on network television, the ritualistic dismemberment of a 7-year-old boy.
All this and Dr. Phil and still the FCC says not a word. But one mostly bare boob and the boobs in the bureaucracy treat it like Anthrax II. It's a sick world we live in, my friends. A sick world."
I love Jack Todd.
