WHAT I HOPE WILL BE THE ONLY REFERENCE TO THE SUPERBOWL HALFTIME "DISPLAY" (PRODUCED BY MTV) ON THIS WEBSITE.
Earlier this year, MTV again lectured its audience about homophobia with a made-for-TV movie about murdered gay teen Matthew Shepard and a day-long lobbying campaign for hate crimes laws.

This from the entertainment conglomerate that made foul-mouthed gay-basher Eminem filthy rich and famous.

The ultimate sanctimony of MTV's purveyors of perversity was summed up nicely by two of the original hosts, Mark Goodman and Alan Hunter, who were interviewed on ABC's "Good Morning America" this week. While reminiscing about the wondrous cultural impact the network has had over the past two decades, the men admitted that they don't allow their own teen-age kids to watch MTV.

"Are you kidding?" Goodman guffawed. "Have you seen what they put on the air?"
Halftime used to be a fun, even inspirational event.

"Up With People" was halftime entertainment at four separate super bowls.

I'm betting Janet's string ends at one.

My suggestion...next year let's get whoever produced the Josh Groban astronaut tribute section to produce half-time as well.
