The Parents Television Council has written to MTV, asking the network not to have a repeat of the previous 2013 Video Music Awards, which came under fire for a performance from Robin Thicke and Miley Cryus that was deemed too explicit by some viewers.

In a letter addressed to Janet Borelli, senior VP of standards and practices at MTV Networks/Viacom Media Networks, PTC president Tim Winter asked MTV to “commit publicly that the program will not contain the type of explicit sexual content present in last year’s show.”
