"They hired a Jackson - what did they expect..?"

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) - Janet Jackson's nearly bare breast during the Super Bowl halftime show was the most replayed moment measured by TiVo Inc. (TIVO) in its short history.

 

The TiVo service, which allows users to pause and do instant replays of live television, found that Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" attracted almost twice as many viewers as the game highlights.

 

San Jose-based TiVo did not release specific numbers. It has measured Super Bowl viewing patterns since 2002. The data was gathered on a zip code basis from an anonymous sample of 20,000 TiVo households.

 

How many tapes would have been running if they promo'd it?

In 1995, CBS aired 2 breasts during prime time and nobody said anything.  Interesting.

 

And it's hysterical that there were millions spent on all those ads and nobody is talking about them after the halftime incident.

The showing was warned BEFORE it was aired. And IMO viewing of breasts regarding a cancer storyline is much more acceptable than a half time show during the superbowl.
