Make a regulation banning television networks from covering up NFL cheerleaders with advertising or information boxes.

Created by C.D. on November 29, 2012

Women are too often not given equal praise and/or recognition in the work place. Sadly the same is true for professional, female athlete cheerleaders. Many cheerleaders work very hard perfecting their craft and skill, and are too often not able to be fully enjoyed by sports fans watching games on television. It is clear that this sole focus on male athletes and complete disregard of female cheerleaders is outrageously sexist. We are sure that you agree that immediate action needs to be taken to resolve this assault on women in the workplace. Therefore, we kindly ask you to craft a fair regulation requiring networks to give cheerleaders an unobstructed stage on which they can be seen by banning networks from placing opaque objects in the foreground while cheerleaders are performing.
