Sexy date rape segment is ready for Primetime

Via Jezebel:

Last night’s Primetime featured Jeffrey Marsalis, who allegedly used Match.com to meet, drug, and rape 22 women. For some reason, producers ran a sexy, smoky interview with his defense attorney… and their sponsor was the erectile dysfunction drug Levitra.

The decision to depict Marsalis’ attorney as a cool cat backed by mood-setting music was bizarre. Even weirder? When, after a segment detailing how Marsalis would slip sedatives into his dates’ drinks in order to have sex with them, the episode faded to black and an ad for Levitra came on.

At least it wasn’t one of the “Viva Viagra” ads, or one of those creepy Enzite ads.

Hat tip, Oliver Willis.
