Jackson to be Billed? Page 6 of the New York Post is reporting (scroll down) that CBS and its parents company Viacom is considering sending a bill to Janet Jackson for $550,000 -- the exact amount the network was fined by the FCC for the "wardrobe malfunction" during last year's Super Bowl. My question: why is Timberlake being let off the hook so easily? It took two to tango, so to speak, in this incident. There seems to be no way Jackson can be guilty without Timberlake also being on the hook. Either the entire thing was an accident, which no one seems to believe, or Timberlake deliberately pulled off part of Jackson's costume. He deliberately reached over and grabbed her; how could that be accidental? But, since it was Jackson's female breast that we "saw" (if you can even say that), she is the one taking the majority of the heat.
