Erin Andrews taped nude in hotel room (Fox "news" tie-in)
Erin Andrews, an ESPN reporter, was taped in the nude through the peephole of her hotel room door.
(Apparently there's some kind of tech that does this.)

While this is illegal, perhaps even a felony, Fox "news," and it seems CBS' morning show ran this story with clips and stills of the video, the naughty bits blanked out, natch.

So why run with it at all?

At Fox, this is standard T & A for the perverts watching.
At CBS, I hope someone gets sued by Andrews and then shitcanned.

1. Despicable

It's terrible enough to know that this tape exists but to show it on television is even worse. It condones and encourages the illegal taping.
Have they no decency? (I guess I already knew the answer to that.)

2. Isn't that how they got the pic of John Edwards in the hotel room dandling his third daughter on his
knee? It's like a fiber optic thing, or something....

5. I don't know.
I never had heard of such tech that could look through that peephole, until today.

4. Someone was naked in their hotel room? Oh.My. God! What will we tell the children?
It figures that Fox would show as much as they could. They are voyeurs.

6. Of course.
When they did a feature about kids being victimized by criminals while on Spring Break, what did they show?

Naturally, wet T-shirt contests and bikini dancing.
