July 2007 Stats for The Big Picture.
First of all, I want to applaud NBC for reportedly deciding not to show Madonna on the cross in her upcoming concert special. NBC is showing that it will not have double standards for Christians and Muslims.
Second, I want to note how this incident is an example of what Matt Stone and Trey Parker of South Park are talking about when they say, that either everything is okay to show, or nothing is. Because MSM bowed to the threats (mostly to kill each other) of radical Islamists, and didn't show the Mohammed cartoons, we now find that Madonna can't do her whole act on TV.
So I applaud NBC for their decision, and observe that the thing that would be even better, would be, to show the Mohammed cartoons, and also let Madonna do her whole act.

The Mohammad cartoons was genuine news and people had a right to see what generated such a ‘passionate response’ from Muslims.
Madonna’s video, on the other hand, is a genuine self-promoting, commercial enterprise engineered to be provocative and offensive.
Cartoons, yes. Madonna, no.
