REALITY CHECK
The National Organization for Women has released its third annual report on how women are portrayed on prime-time TV, and, well, it's not a pretty picture. NOW says the majority of women on TV continue to fall under the category of "young, thin and white" (that's you, Jennifer Aniston!), and it accuses the six major networks of catering to an "adolescent boy's fantasy world." What's more, according to the report, the industry employs 134 more men than women in recurring roles.
