am i the only one that thinks that showing young girls in minimal clothing "dancing" nearly every time a 4 is hit during the ITV4 cricket coverage during the day and evening is wrong. it is surely objectifying them and teaching any children (boys and girls alike) that are watching that this is what is expected of girls for them to be "liked". in a way, it's more harmful than lads mags as it is being shown as if it's the norm, whereas a lads mag is specifically targeted.
if anyone else thinks this is a very bad example to youngsters, please email itv on:

the more people that raise the issue with them, the more likely they are to take notice!
