 Jane Fonda: Uses vulgar slang term on `Today' show
Jane Fonda, who is now 70 year old actress used a vulgar slang term on the "Today" show on Thursday while talking about the play "The Vagina Monologues". Jane Fonda was on "Today" show with author Eve Ensler.
Once again NBC News apologized for the insident.
Jane Fonda told co-host Meredith Vieira that she was asked to perform a monologue with a slang term for vagina as the title — and Fonda used the term itself on the air in explaining why she said "no."
Jane Fonda said, "I said, I don't think so, I've got enough problems".
After few minutes later, Vieira told viewers that Jane Fonda had used a word from the play that normally isn't used on television.
Vieira said, "It was a slip and obviously she apologizes and so do we, we would do nothing to offend the audience, so please accept that apology".
"Today" moved quickly to silence the word and cover up Jane Fonda's face with a still photo when the show was aired in the Midwest, Mountain and West Coast feeds.
It's been a month's worth of apologies for NBC News, owned by General Electric Co. MSNBC anchor Chris Matthews said he was sorry for suggesting that the reason Hillary Clinton was a presidential candidate was because of her husband's infidelities. MSNBC correspondent David Shuster was suspended for two weeks for saying the Clintons had "pimped out" daughter Chelsea for presidential campaigning. |
