pattbateman Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 How did i fucking know this was gonna happen.If fuckin new itTenn. Woman Files Suit Over Super BowlAssociated PressKNOXVILLE, Tenn. - Terri Carlin wants to make Janet Jackson's bare breast into a federal case.Carlin filed a proposed class action lawsuit in U.S. District Court Wednesday against Jackson, singer Justin Timberlake, broadcasters MTV and CBS and their parent company, Viacom.Carlin alleges that she and others who watched the halftime show during Sunday's Super Bowl were injured by the performers' lewd actions when Timberlake ripped off part of Jackson's costume, exposing her breast.In the lawsuit, Carlin charges that the exposure and "sexually explicit conduct" by other performers during the show injured viewers."As a direct and proximate result of the broadcast of the acts, (Carlin) and millions of others saw the acts and were caused to suffer outrage, anger, embarrassment and serious injury," the lawsuit says.But Carlin, who works in a bank, doesn't specify the type of injury allegedly suffered."All of the defendants knew that the Super Bowl, the pre-eminent sports event in the United States, would be watched by millions of families and children," says the lawsuit filed by Knoxville attorney Wayne A. Ritchie II. "Nevertheless, (they) included in the halftime show sexually explicit acts solely designed to garner publicity and, ultimately, to increase profits for themselves."The lawsuit charges that the broadcast companies and the two singers violated an "implied" contract with viewers not to subject them to lewd actions."Families have an expectation that they can trust companies and individuals such as the defendants not to expose families to sexually explicit conduct during broadcasts of prime time events such as the Super Bowl," the lawsuit says.Jackson has apologized for the incident, saying a red lace garment was supposed to remain over her breast when an outer garment was ripped away. She denied that the NFL, CBS, or MTV, which produced the halftime show for CBS, knew of her plans, and those entities all have condemned the performance.The lawsuit says the broadcasters should have had a "sufficient broadcast delay" to censor the acts, even if they didn't know what Jackson and Timberlake planned to do on stage.Carlin's lawsuit seeks billions of dollars in compensatory and punitive damages.

xhellex Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 Man --- anything for attention and a possible buck -- some people ... geez!!!

jamiroguy1 Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 I really don't see what the big fucking deal is. Americans are so uptight about nudity. Who care's if the world saw Janet Jackson's titty for 2 seconds. Hasn't everyone in the world seen a titty before? Even little babies.

Yeah, I agree with you there but is it that big of a deal to sue Viacom or ultimately sue Janet Jackson or Justin Timberlake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marksimons Posted February 8 Report Share Posted February 8 oh fuck that.it's cause she's a black woman.bartcop sums it up:Am I the only one who isn't certain Janet is guilty? Would she risk her career on something like that? Notice she's kicked off the Grammys, but Justin is still welcome. Are women happy about that? Like with prostitution, the woman gets arrested but the man goes home to his wife - no questions asked. .. Does she look angry and defiant? I think she looks lost, scared and uncertain. Plus, I don't see many people standing up for her. She's become the icon of all evil. The poster child for what's wrong with America. She's Kobe and Scott Peterson combined. What Janet Jackson did was so wrong, so evil and so shocking, the networks have replayed her terribly offensive video again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again ...that's how terrible her disgusting titty-peep was for about a split-second. But why do others who have committed much worse offenses get a pass? When a holier-than-thou Republican sets a new low for all-time vulgarity, the nation's morality nannies give her a pass and go after the black girl. Dr Laura, straddling a camera lens to gross everyone out. This was no "wardrobe accident." This is a nasty slut spreading her legs for vulgar's sake. But the Republican is always forgiven so the media can jump on the minority who, for all we know, did have an accident. --spot on bartyboy.heheh this pic is funny: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
