Parents Television Council Attacks "Gossip Girl" OMFG Campaign
Those pathetic losers from the Parents Television Council who don't seem to know how to use their remote controls are on the warpath again, this time taking issue with "sexually suggestive photo showing a teenage boy kissing a girl’s cleavage" as part of CW's "Gossip Girl" current print campaign. OMFG! How shocking.
The wingnuts have recently filed "indecency" complaints over a partially blurred image of a nude model on "America's Top Model," a scene of a man groping woman's breasts on "My Mame Is Earl" and Pfizer's Viagra ads.
In a statement regarding "Gossip Girl," the PTC says: "The Parents Television Council deplores the CW’s deliberate use of profanity and sexual imagery to exploit and further corrupt young viewers, and has warned its members about the show and the new ad campaign."
"Gossip Girl" returned last Monday with second-best ever ratings in target demos. I certainly hope PTC's wretched efforts will add even more eyeballs to the show as many right wing campaigns of this kind are known to spark controversy with boomerang results.

really , im only 14. but ive been watching GG since i was 12. and its an amazing show, its tought me alot of things ,like if you do coke you will OD. and that runing away from things never helps. and the sex shoudlnt matter , if you parenting is good enought then your daughters should be able to watch this and know whats wrong and right
the PTC are offended by this show so they wish to pull it off the air. I'm offended by them, can I pull them off? if the PTC have such a problem maybe they should change the channel, or atleast except that their kids are going to learn this stuff one day, so why not now. CWs new add for gossip girl is a win.
