ABC is Every Woman

The FCC is fining ABC for an NYPD Blue episode that showed a woman's nude butt. Not sure why this particular incident is fine-worthy compared to the many other butt shots on the series over the years, but here's an unintentionally (I think) hilarious quote from the AP article:

The agency said the show was indecent because "it depicts sexual organs and excretory organs specifically an adult woman's buttocks."

The agency rejected the network's argument that "the buttocks are not a sexual organ."

Oh, FCC. You so dirty.

American Dreamz 2?

I can't decide which is the funnier thing about this photo: The goofy grin on President Bush's face or the fact that the AP felt the need to caption it, "President Bush, center, poses with 9 of the top 10 American Idol finalists..."


American Idiot, center

America, this is what happens when you (and by you, I mean we) elect a pop star who looks like he's 60; people could conceivably confuse him with George Bush. Thank you, AP, for clarifying.

Previously, on The Dish: Two If By Sea 2?, Tossed Salad and Scrambled Eggs, Maybe, But Still No Heart and Soul, BUSH DECLARES WAR ON POP CULTURE!

Black People Steal, White People Win

Did the AP learn nothing from Katrina? Or at least take away the profound (albeit subtle) message of this year's Best Picture winner that racism isn't good?
