cheesy. ''The B.J. Cameron Show'', on the other side of things, tries to go similarly over the top for shock-jock radio, but ends up looking strangely tame when compared to reality.

Ironically, her focus on this crusade comes at the expense of being any kind of actual role model in her own children's lives, shown explicitly when she fobs off the job of getting them to school on one of her underlings.

* JerkassHasAPoint: Carolyn isn't really wrong that making a teenage actress wear skimpy outfits and putting her in sexualized situations is kind of gross. The problem is that she goes after the ''actress'' through SlutShaming, rather than whoever's in charge of the show and making her do those things, like the producer or director.

Lies Damned Lies And Statistics removed because Cragen's statement about Jessie and Marquez's relationship isn't presented as a statistic or even a fact; it's just his opinion.


* LiesDamnedLiesAndStatistics: Cragen tells Stabler, about the legal marriage between Marquez and Jessie (this latter legally emancipated since she was 14), that "Marquez is 40, Jessie is 16. It's legal pedophilia." This is dangerously incorrect, since pedophilia has always been by definition the primary or exclusive attraction to prepuberty, while ephebophilia, instead, is the primary or exclusive attraction to mid-to-late adolescents and biological adults aged 15/16 to 18/19, as also accurately clarified by Dr. George Huang character in the series.



* PyrrhicVictory: Carolyn Spencer ultimately gets away with shooting B.J. Cameron when the jury deadlocks. But if their last conversation is any indication, her plan to get more publicity for her cause has come at the cost of her relationship with her son.
