Staged?
Monday, February 2nd, 2004
I don’t know how much else can be talked about in the wake of last night’s Super Bowl. Even as the Panthers made it a game in the second half, at least at the party I was at, everyone was still only talking about one thing. Thank God for Tivo, because it allowed us to dissect the incident multiple times. I’m rarely shocked by anything I see on TV, but my jaw dropped when it happened. So the question is, was it on purpose? Or, who knew and when did they know it?
My take is that CBS didn’t know. MTV may not have even known. Justin and Janet knew. As much as they acted shocked, I can’t see it as anything other than good acting. Justin clearly grabbed and tore, something that, I have to imagine, is hard to do ‘unintentionally.’ And Jackson has a new album coming out and is definitively in need of some hype, other than what is happening with her brother. Both make it unlikely that the exposure was accidental.
CBS, and even MTV, have too much to lose by the whole thing for me to think it was likely that they knew. Or at least that their higher-ups knew. The NFL is pissed, and probably rightfully so, the Super Bowl is suppose to be a family friendly event of big men hitting each other and slightly less avert sexual references in beer commercials. A completely bare breast has no place in that environment. I don’t think whatever buzz CBS and even MTV get related to the stunt would be worth it to them to make the NFL and middle America as mad as was inevitable. Whether the producers, or director knew, I can’t say. Still, I don’t think the conspiracy went all the way to the top.
Update: Have no fear American citizen, your government is coming to your rescue.
Update 2: Apparently people with TiVo were not terribly offended by the incident. It was the most replayed moment in the history of TiVo. I didn’t figure my party was alone.

Tivo, huh? I’m gonna have to get me that thing. I missed the Janet Jackson breast incident, dammit.
That was pretty clever on her part I have to say. It’ll blow over. Better get Achroft on it before it does though.
The real story is the Riverdancin’ streaker before the 2nd half kickoff….
A breast
And what happens when one is seen at the Super-bowl half-time show? Well, everyone pretty much freaks out. I am not sure whether the outcry is hysterical funny or completely bloody pathetic. I quite honestly am leaning towards the latter….
We were saved from this indecency by the Lingerie Bowl!
Now would have been truly cool is if Janet twatted Timberwank across the face.
Super Bowl Notebook
Well, I sure as heck didn’t expect anything like this. I thought for sure the Patriots defense would have Panthers
I just want to point out that a much more, um, revealing view of events can be seen on Drudge.
Nothing surprises me about our sick entertainment people.However,I was a little surprised that janet and justin did not give each other a blow job on stage.Oh well,at least there is something to talk about other than democrat dummies running for a merit badge.
just got back from drudge..heh…I learned what a metal ’solar’ nipple medallion is….heh
I’d like to take this opportunity to again thank Al Gore for inventing the internet.
heh
I’d expect this sort of thing on FOX, but not on CBS. For shame! …I loved the photo on Drudge, though.
I would like to celebrate this television moment as a “team effort” and the “death of the individual”
I was hoping for Carolina to defeat the evil collectivists of New England, but, alas, it did not happen.
Man, in that pic her face is much darker than the rest of her that you can see. Must be all of the makeup…
We can act shocked all we want,,, The ploy worked. It’s all everybody is talking about today.
Glad to know I’m not the only person who roots against teams based on fans political affiliations.
Tommy - I root against all Texas teams as a matter of principle. Pretty silly reason to root against a team, but I still do it.
I am not offended by her boob. However, I am offended that Justin Timberlake has an erection in those photos.
Personally, I’ve never participated in a political exit poll as I’m leaving Kauffman or Arrowhead Stadiums, so I cannot attest to the political affiliation of my favorite teams’ fans, nor those of any other fans of MLB or the NFL (everyone knows that all soccer fans, regardless of team affiliation, are commies).
Here in KC, we hate the Raiders simply because they are the Raiders, and we hate the Cardinals because their fans are sore losers (Jorge Orta was safe, it was almost 20 years ago, so get over it). Politics belong in sports about as much as MTV belongs at the Superbowl.
Whatever happened to regional or conference rivalries? Cubs fans irrationally hating Sox fans (or Red Sox fans reflexively hating Yankees fans) make more sense to me than rooting against a team because their stadium happens to be located in the same state as a Presidental candidate’s home. I suppose that, since DC has no pro teams of their own, this sort of thing seems to make sense there… Out here in the hinterlands, however, our rivalries and hatreds for other teams’ fans are simple and direct in their irrationality…
I just can’t believe Timberfake is calling it a ‘wardrobe malfunction’ …..
Brent Bozell’s strange epistemology
“Whether or not CBS executives did or did not know in advance is irrelevant, Viacom executives had the duty to know.” Um…huh? [link via Bryan Westhoff]…
So I guess this means Fox probably won’t get the SuperBowl next year and call it Rupert’s Page3 Bowl?
That’d rock.
“Whatever happened to regional or conference rivalries? ”
It’s hard to get worked up when the only real tie a team has to its locality is the amount of welfare it can extort out of the state and city.
The Patriots team,well known fans, as well as the ownership have made continued stands against individualism and in favor of collectivism. I’m not sure I would call that a political stand, but it is certainly a philosophical one- one that is manifested in socialist polticians and policies. I believe that is far worse than any simple political partisanship. I recall Fat Teddy’s celebration against the individual the last time NE won two years ago. This certainly influenced my rooting against the Pats this time out. I had a lengthy discussion with one of my best friends (perhaps the only one I know who sees the fault in collectivism) prior to the Superbowl about how the Patriots like to be introduced as collective, downplay individual effort,etc. We were at a somewhat large Superbowl viewing party. Sure enough, no sooner had the game ended and the Trophy presentation begun , the Patriots representative ( I assume it was the owner , but not sure who he is) began speaking against individual achievement and in favor of the team concept. I exchanged a mutual “I Told You So” glance with my friend. Then I interrupted the victory speech with my outburst railing against collectivism. I think it was a bit much, but I dont like to see individualism under attack. Plus I dont think think real “Patriots” are communists.
Let’s talk about the tit again. It’s more fun.
Did you note how quickly the camera left the scene? I did not get much of a look.
While this was in poor taste, a one second look at a boob with some kind of covering on the nipple is hardly worth a national debate.
Can you imagine that the FCC is threatening to fine all TV stations that carried the superbowl hefty fines?
Graham:
You do realize that nothing the Patriots did or said violates any libertarian principle whatsoever? It merely violates this quasi-Objectivist principle you invoke of “individualism” that renders impossible any notion of free association.
Can somebody explain to me why this is a big deal and who was hurt?
Is it that parents were embarrassed because their kids got to see them act like idiots?
Football is a team sport. If there is a place for collectivism anywhere, it’s football.
I can’t resist Radley (if only to beat u to the punch), I see the FCC’s Powell is gonna widen the “probe” - - kinda “tongue in cheek” &/or Freudian perhaps eh!? Lingerie Bowl; I can see it now - - Victoria’s Secret/Frederick’s/Aberecrombie & Fitch playoffs!
We miss so much out here in the 3rd world of the N.Marianas
We’re worried about children seeing a teat?
This is redunkulous.
I’m willing to bet that many of the children who saw it were breast fed and had no reaction until their parent’s freaked out.
Free the breast!
Hundreds of millions of people saw it. It was a flash, (I believe it ws an accident, because Janet Jackson is no Britney Spears), apparently a thousand people called and complained… An INCREDIBLY SMALL percentage, considering that usually less than half the population are always complaining about something. And Mr. FCC Chairman (our appointed guardian protecting us from “obscenity”) speaks as if the whole country were outraged. If you happen to look down into your bear for more than a split second you wouldn’t have seen anything. We’re living in a couuntry that spends trillions of dollars on pornography, and a half-second flash of breast is detrimental to our moral fabric?? Excuse me, I don’t think humans in their entire history have EVER had moral fabric.
If she intended to expose herself, why is she covering herself up one second later as in the photo on this site?
Meanwhile, Edwin Meese is calling Michael Powell every five minutes, volunteering for the job…
I agree that it’s the parents’ response to what happened that gets the kids curious not the actual happening.
A breast of fresh attention for Janet
And what happens when one is seen at the Super-bowl half-time show? Well, everyone pretty much freaks out. I am…
It’s kinda freaky that TiVo monitors what you’re doing to the degree that they’d know what you’re replaying off of a hard drive in a machine in your home.
I can’t imagine why she’d be wearing that nipple medallion for the number if it wasn’t supposed to be seen.
I don’t understand why she’d want to have such a thing (it looks painful!). But, given that she likes it, I suspect she wears it on occasions other than national TV exposure.
“It’s kinda freaky that TiVo monitors what you’re doing to the degree that they’d know what you’re replaying off of a hard drive in a machine in your home.”
This is why I stopped subscribing to Tivo. Besides the outrageous amount they charge (I stopped back when it was only 9.95/month, equal to my net access back then) but because they take all that you do on your Tivo and sell those statistics to major networks like they are the new Nielsens.
Fuckers. NO MONEY FOR YOU!!
“I don’t understand why she’d want to have such a thing (it looks painful!). But, given that she likes it, I suspect she wears it on occasions other than national TV exposure.”
I’ll buy that, but I still find it hard to believe she’s wear it for theat number if it wasn’t going to be displayed.
Also, “Tivo” is supposedly a “libertarian” company.
Janet Jackson unmasked!!!If the FCC allows this to be aired on public TV…then what would be next to see on our super bowl games in the future?Child porn?I hope not ever!!!Thats why this type smut should be banned from super bowl games…too many innocent children watch and I doubt that a 8 year old would still be breast feeding!
My only question about this whole incident is: Is this controversy actually about what happened, or is it really only that it happened during the Super Bowl?
Which is it, I’m confused?
On network TV I’ve seen lots worse. Like Dennis Franz’s ass for starters. I personally found the McDonalds ad suggesting the smell of cheeseburgers could spur a middle-aged man into a sexual frenzy that his wife was more then willing to oblige on the kitchen floor to be, if not offensive, at least not very appetizing. I mean don’t get me wrong I hope I’m still “doing it” at that age, even in the kitchen too, but I don’t want to paint people a picture of it, especially with the tag line, “I’m love it.” Gross!
PLEASE SEND ME A JPEG OF JANETS BOOB
show me the boob.
I am absolutely outraged with all of this lifes double standard bullshit. Punish janet in every way you can . i can go on and on.grammys no relaease. Let’s reward justin either purposeful or accidently he went. what;s done is done . Grammy night he was there. I don’t fuching see nobody where I ever heard this . organizations of 2 participants yours. but punishment for one for the exact same shit boggles the hell out of me. Where the fuckwould would his be for participation for his agitation.com
Everyone keeps talking about what Janet and Justin did. True, that was bad enough, but what about the other performers? Why is it necessary to run around in front of everybody, holding on to your privates, like some kind of prize possession? And the lyrics…..come on now. Also, what about the blatant disrespect for the American flag that so many people fight and die for? I feel like it could have been displayed on a flag pole, as it should be, and not worn as clothing, and drug all over the place.
not good
Everything is funny as long as it is happening to somebody else.

I just feel sad about such incidents…
