I wrote a post about this a few days ago titled ABC Should Have Known Better. Cheap plug aside, it’s my impression of why there was a controversy.

can't comment on something i didn't see myself
there was a lot of complaining about cross-promotion, regardless of the content of the plug itself.  but cross-promotion has been going on in our society long before television, even before mass culture per se.  it's just now taken to its most pervasive. tg

Gee, the last time I seduced a football quarterback, I was 9 years old.  I do wonder about the validity of this "Desperate Housewives" impression they're giving ...  After all, the only man I'm desperate to cozy up to now that I'm a housewife is my own cuddly husband who I'm crazy about.
