Just how are we supposed to tell a surfer what the site is about without using the words, naked news, newscaster, etc...
They're not "like that" ... they're always great to work with. A-lot of programs started adding similar verbage to their TOS awhile back, but the only time I've ever heard of it being made a big issue of was when that one guy, what was his name? Dirty K? He decided not to pay some affiliate named shoehorse because he had bid on competing terms or whatever else.
