Our media is much more liberal than what you would find in the US.
For example, The Sopranos is broadcast on CTV (the equivalent of NBC or CBS) in prime time, uncensored. You can regulary here words like Shit and Fuck on the air and on the cable channels, nudity is not uncommon.
The main reason for this, as far as I can see, is that we do not have the puritanical history that the US has. We don't have the same numbers of fundamentalists in our societal make up. They are there but the numbers are much smaller. We are fundamentally a secular society. Politcians who talk about God the way that George Bush does, do not get elected or re-elected.
Quite frankly, most of us were scratching our heads over the whole wardrobe malfunction. It was just a nipple...
