Studio 10 reprimanded by watchdog after showing images from Rob Lowe sex tape
The media watchdog has reprimanded Ten’s Studio 10 morning program for airing still images from the Rob Lowe sex tape on its morning broadcast placing it in breach of its PG classification.
The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has found that Network Ten breached the Code of Practice, back on January 1, in a segment that featured a discussion about the Rob Lowe sex tape scandal from 1988 where producers chose to include two inset still images that were sourced from the original video footage.
The ACMA found that Ten breached the Code as the material was not correctly classified in accordance with the show’s PG classification, with the report noting that Studio Ten aired images of “an erect penis in blurry silhouette.”
Network Ten told the watchdog that it conceded the still images exceeded the PG classification of the program and were aired due to human error.
The TV network also indicated it has taken a number of steps to minimise the chance of such a breach occurring in the future with Studio 10 staff being giving training on the classification requirements.
The ACMA said that after taking into account Ten’s compliance history it felt the station’s actions address the compliance issues raised by the investigation.
Seriously? A sex tape from. -1988 – is the best ya got?
That’s from the VHS/Beta days.
For some millennials, this the equivalent of watching their parents (ewwww) …..
Some dude caused a scandal 28 years ago, and some EP at 10 thinks anyone cares????

There’s a thing – called the internet – and there’s porn 24/7.

You are obviously NOT a parent … Just because you think everything that goes is ok for your sick mind doesn’t mean parents of 3-6yr olds want their kids seeing that in the mornings, bad enough with the slutty jokes and insinuations that go on.. you obviously don’t watch it. Parents and intelligent people know the difference between what is right and wrong…or acceptable for children..not self adoring, self indulgent, self serving people as yourself. MOTHER of 5….34yrs!
