However disturbing the conviction, it paled next to allegations that she had sexually abused two of the children, or, in the unforgettable words of the court, "committed a lewd act upon a minor," charges that, with little fanfare, were later dropped. Poundstone regained custody of her children after a court-ordered six-month stay in a rehab center, but she remains on probation and is required to attend Alcoholics Anonymous...

But my outburst was never supposed to make it on the air. It was not part of a lewd series.? The FCC never even contacted the station to complain. KCRW called my firing a "preemptive distancing."
