...surge of complaints. NBC stations in New York, Los Angeles, Washington and Chicago have received more than 3,000 calls and letters, and they have been running about 20-to-l against the movie. Upset about the response, some NBC affiliates went out of their way to chide the network. In Nashville, which takes justifiable pride in its sophistication, WSM-TV received 70 calls protesting the rape scene in the first hour after the show; this prompted one station official to tell a local reporter that NBC was solely to blame for the "filthy, disgusting, degrading" show.
