It has been revealed that the FCC noticeably failed to come down like
a ton of bricks on Oprah Winfrey when Oprah did a show on teen
sexuality last October, despite receiving more than 1600 complaints
from viewers.
The show apparently referred to such fascinating sexual practices as
"salad tossing" (according to Oprah's expert, that's, uh, oral-anal
sex) and "rainbows" (which involves a penis and several different
shades of lipstick - use your imagination).
Funnily enough, when Howard Stern did a similar segment on his radio
show, the FCC fined Clear Channel Communications almost half a million
dollars and Clear Channel subsequently dumped Stern.
But their reaction to Oprah's show - which aired during the daytime -
was surprisingly silent.
Could this be nothing more than rank hypocrisy on the part of the FCC?
Surely not.
