NEW YORK (AP) - On-air promos for a sexual threesome on an upcoming episode of "Gossip Girl" have spurred the Parents Television Council to ask affiliate stations of the CW network to pre-empt the show.

The organization's president, Tim Winter, says airing the story line on the teen-oriented soap is "reckless and irresponsible."

Winter says he has urged every CW affiliate not to air the episode, scheduled for Nov. 9.

The Parents Television Council describes itself as a nonpartisan education group advocating responsible entertainment.

The CW network had no comment on the group's call for action.
