The hell with fairness. Most CNBC viewers are male and their needs should be catered to. The day Bauman and O'Brien show up nude on CNBC marks the end of Western civilization.

Interestingly I'm in Prague right now and I noticed that full frontal nudity in mainstream TV shows and even commercials from France and Germany is commonplace. (Too bad the soap commercials don't seem to be working...Proctor and Gamble seems to be about the only DOW 30 company that hasn't taken over Europe. I sometimes have to gasp for air after passing groups of French on the street.)

Shows how the strong the Puritan strain is in the American ethic. England seems to be a bit more like us and they are all in a fuss about the topless photos of Sophie Rees-Jones.
