Parents Furious Over 'Gossip Girl' Threesome Episode
The Council is asking The CW to pull the entire episode, which is said to feature an NC-17 rated threesome with a trio of the show's main characters.
PTC President, Tim Winter, wrote a letter to the president of the The CW, Dawn Ostroff, as well as every single CW affiliate in the country requesting that the episode be pulled.
In the letter, Winter said:
"To include a storyline like this on a program that is expressly targeted to impressionable teenagers is reckless and irresponsible. We are asking each CW Network affiliate to use their common sense and preempt this episode."
Winter goes on to warn:
"PTC will not hesitate to contact local and national advertisers; and if this program violates broadcast decency law, rest assured that our members will contact the Federal Communications Commission."
The PTC also created a stir when Gossip Girl launched the "OMFG" campaign in 2008.
