Even though he is a big part of the "sportscycle" Kornheiser does make a good point. If people are so offended by Janet's breast and Bertuzzi's punch, the news org should stop showing it. I thought the sports folks would have learned after Theismann's leg, but violence is back.
A novel idea might be that the FCC require news orgs to show something only 25 times. After that it would require extraordinary circumstances. I know that folks might think this is censorship, but at the same time they are invading our air space with sensationalist garbage in a blatent attempt at ratings. If they are "news" orgs, they should be better and know the difference.
