Janet Jackson's nipple slips

and it becomes the f***ing

crime of the century.

Furthermore,

I'm trying to bring about

more responsible representations

of female nudity,

because the only representations

that I see in mainstream culture

are ones that are totally

hypersexualized

and ones that make me question

what it means to be a woman

in modern society.

Wow.

[laughing] How many times

have you been arrested?

No comment.

Why do you think

you keep getting arrested

for something

that's legal in New York?

BSCGUSG COPS 3T6 FTIOFOHS.

So why do you keep doing H'?

It makes me feel good.

Why don't you get a lawyer

next time?

Um, I've thought about it.

Maybe you can

be in charge of that,

since you've promised

to join us next time.

I did?

Mm-hmm. You did.

[laughs]

What if! don'???

I will deny

everything in this interview.

I should not have to use

an NFL halftime show

as a negative example

to teach my children.

Allowing tasteless

Super Bow! programming

is a nationwide entertainment

industry standard.

(Tunick) I even had a photograph

of 5O men and women's heads,

and then one woman's breast

was showing.

They had a problem with H,

and I said, "Why don't you

just blur it out?"

And they said, Oh, we don't

censor at The New York Times.

(woman) Right; there were-you

know, there were young chHdren.

There was a six-year-old.

(Stern) What is the

problem with people?

And I know that's

not the main issue here.

The six-year-old girl who died,

okay?

She died because she was,

unfortunately,

in the same spot as a lunatic.

(woman) Yeah, but she would

have been at home, asleep.

(Stern) At home asleep, at

home playing board games-

it's not about what time it was

or where she was at.

Batman is a scary movie.

If you're in this

to change the world,

you're in the wrong business.

We have a dozen interns who can

write more palatable stories

for college credit and who

would love to have your job.

In fact, clear out your desk.

You're just

not working out here.

Liv, it's With. Call me back.

I'm on my way to you

right now.

Are you there?

[knocks on door]

Liv, it's With. Call me back.

I'm on my way to you right now.

Hey.

Ooh! Sorry.

I've been texting

you for hours.

Did you lose

your phone again?

No, I live in

What?

Okay, you're

freaking me out.
