General Motors Places MTV's Skins on "Do Not Buy" List

General Motors' has placed MTV's new series Skinson its "do not buy" list, according to a statement released by the Parents Television Council on Friday.

"PTC thanks General Motors for swiftly responding to PTC members' concerns about Chevy Volt advertisements" PTC President Tim Winter said in a statement. "MTV admitted placing the Chevy commercial on Skins in error. GM also stated that MTV had apologized for its error.

Parents Television Council calls for federal investigation into MTV's Skins

Following Skins' Monday premiere, The Parents Television Council swiftly called for a federal investigation into whether the racy teen drama violates child pornography and exploitation laws. A remake of the controversial British series of the same name, Skins premiered to 3.26 million viewers and featured candid depictions of teen sex and drug use.
