Is Pornography Cheating?

So I'm listening to my local radio station and an interesting point has been brought up by the hosts when a listener has called in. The point is that his girlfriend has really grilled him thoroughly about finding pornography on his computer.
One host says that pornography is cheating while the other feels that it is not cheating. The caller views this as not cheating. My personal opinion is that it is not cheating as long as there is no physical contact.
This same question can be posed in the form of whether an "online" relationship is considered "real" or not. However, that is for a much different topic and a much different thread.
So the question I pose to you: Is Pornography Cheating?

but then i realized it said Dr. Drew, and not Dr. Phil
HELL NO
and
I mean having concentual sexual contact with a man would make me gay, but if I masturbate, technically I am giving a guy a handjob, but that doesn't make me gay... does it?
Then again I look at a lot of porn so I am not exactly an unbiased voice...
But if you hide it, it's a form of cheating. (lesser so than sleeping with someone obviously, but I would equate it to kissing someone else)
Also, if it has been made perfectly clear before the relationship became serious that the woman (or maybe in some cases man?) does not want her partner looking at porn.....and he does anyways and just hides it....then yeah. Its not the worst kind of cheating....but boundries were put up before things got serious.
I think a lot depends on how the other partner views porn.....I don't think there is just one definition that work across all couples.
