Nipples on TV

[djugurba]

On last night's ABC news w/ Peter Jennings, they did a story on the AIDS drugs that are causing some controversy in Africa. During the story, they showed some scenes in Africa, including a prolonged look at a bench full of women with children on their laps. One woman's breast was exposed, nipple and all, for all the world to see.

I'm wondering why there is no outcry today regarding this. If it is due to a National Geographic "natives in their natural habitat" theory, that's pretty pathetic. These are not tribespeople whose culture dictates a topless wardrobe. Seems a horrid statement about the way the US regards Africa that this is no big deal but Janet was. (I'd rather none of it be a big deal, btw)
