We can safely assume he is not talking about taco sauce. We'll never know. The producers arrange for camera crews and bodyguards to barge in on trysts. The show then allows the victimized partners to dress down their half-naked mates. The thrust of the show, however, is less about catharsis than titillation.
Ratings are high, and e-mail tips to the show are pouring in.
It is sadly ironic that this trash TV torrent comes on the heels of news that teen abstinence campaigns are catching fire and showing success. Federal researchers reported last week that teenagers who take voluntary and public virginity pledges, under certain conditions, delay intercourse substantially longer than those who do not make such commitments to chastity. More young people are saying no to sex outside marriage as members of their parents' generation tune in to watch vulgar acts of sexual infidelity punctuated with a laugh track. There was a time when parables of temptation were taught to the young to show them the destructiveness of personal unrestraint. Now, it's cheap entertainment.
