More people that need to get a life


No apologies for sexy Paris Hilton ad

NEW YORK (CNN) - Hamburger chain Carl's Jr. is making no apologies for its new Spicy Burger television commercial, which features Hilton hotel heiress and reality TV star Paris Hilton in a skin-tight swimsuit soaping up a Bentley and crawling all over it before taking a big bite out of the burger. ...



But what gets me is this quote:
"Caldwell[research director for the Parents Television Council] says that because the ad is airing during sports programs, and FOX's "OC", which are heavily watched by teens, it promotes sexuality to an audience that might not be ready for it. "It's difficult to gauge how children are going to react to this," Caldwell said."

The "OC"?!? She thinks viewers of the "OC" may not be ready for sexuality? What could she possibly think the primetime soap is about?
