The year of sex and stupidity: It was a year unlike any other in the television world. Both in Canada and the United States, television not only reported the news and created hit shows, it also became the news. On TV and in all the talk about TV, it was the year of sex and stupidity.
The sex was more implied than dramatized. The stupidity was to be found in the fuss about it. Sometimes, mind you, the stupidity spread to the TV news divisions and to the pundits and politicians yakking about television's faults.
