Jane Fonda owes viewers an apology

Jane Fonda tells Meredith Vieira on the "Today" show that she would not perform a monologue with its title being a vulgar slang word.

Her explanation: "I don't think so. I've got enough problems."

Yet during their conversation, she verbalizes that very word.

A few minutes later, Vieira/NBC News apologizes for Ms. Fonda's "slip of the tongue."

Isn't it Jane Fonda who should be apologizing?

And wasn't it just a few weeks ago that Diane Keaton let slip a vulgar word on ABC's Good Morning America with Diane Sawyer?

Slips of the tongue? I don't think so.

These actresses are talented and attractive; too bad it's all lost when they open their mouths. No class.
