China irked by topless women's health ad - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060613/od_nm/china_topless_dc_3): "BEIJING (Reuters) - A Chinese TV presenter issued a public apology after posing topless with two other women in hospital advertisements for women's health, the Beijing News said Tuesday.
Chen Dan, a presenter on Changsha TV's 'Women's channel' in the southeastern province of Hunan, drew fire from Internet chat-rooms and station bosses after her 'Clever Girls Love Themselves More' advertisement appeared at bus stops and on billboards in Hunan's capital, Changsha.
Chen, who was suspended from presenting duties said it was a 'public interest advertisement,' the Beijing News said.
'My intentions were good,' the paper quoted her as saying. 'I hoped to draw people's attention to women's health, but because the format was inappropriate it caused a huge backlash. In future I will choose more suitable ways of publicizing women's health.'"
