I just sent an e-mail to comments@... ... just wanted to share what
I wrote.

I thought that the way you presented the Janet Jackson story was
disgusting. She was very visibly upset by what happened, and it could
have been explained without showing the clip again, especially twice!
No, I'm not a conservative that is upset with "a little skin" being
shown on TV. What upsets me is the embarrassment that Ms. Jackson must
feel knowing that that clip is being shown over and over all across the
country. What happened to Ms. Jackson was a very public sexual assault.
Which brings me to the second thing that makes me angry: Chad Mahoney's
comments. When they shot to the news desk, Mr. Mahoney said, "First
Latoya, then Micheal, now Janet. Oh, well, one man's malfunction is
another man's pleasure." First of all, the Micheal Jackson case should
not be compared to what happened with Ms. Jackson. Micheal Jackson was
the perpetrator, Janet Jackson was a victim. By comparing the two, it
subtly spreads the myth that it is somehow the victims fault. As for the
other comment, I would like to know how ANY decent man can get pleasure
from watching someone being sexually assaulted. I found that comment not
only crude, but very disturbing as well.

I hope that in the future, your reporters will handle cases of sexual
assault with a bit more tact.
