I think so too, however a point was made that the objectification of women plays into mens perception of, and attitude toward women. This could play a role.

I am not saying people can't be affected by what they take in through their senses, or how it interplays with their fetishes and or intrests. It is however, silly to me to attempt to use this argument as a means of regulation, which is what it will end up.

What other things objectify women in television, radio, movies, marketing in general? Could marketing exist without some forms of objectification?

I always feel like in these situations you give an inch, special intrest groups and lobbyists will make it a square mile, and it would be giving, since the directly provable science here is doubtful at best I am betting.
