Carter made the announcement on ABC's Politically Incorrect on February 8, 2000, as part of a lively debate about whether the government should fund a "safety manual" for prostitutes in Philadelphia.
Carter returned to that theme a minute later, asking, "Why aren't we discussing whether we should legalize prostitution instead -- and drugs instead -- of whether we should just put a little band-aid on the deal by handing out these pathetic little pamphlets?"
In addition to her television career, Carter won a Theatre World Award for her role on Broadway in Jesse and the Bandit Queen, released two yoga videos, published a book (Trying to Get to Heaven: Opinions of a Tennessee Talker, Simon Schuster, 1996), and recorded two music CDs.
