For me it was looking for something to watch on a Saturday morning and found an episode of DeGrassi High (sp?) where a gay student was being treated like a hero after he physically assaulted a member of the school’s bible club during an abstinence demonstration because their “hate” drove him over the edge. The show treated this as a logical conclusion and the assaulting fag as a misunderstood hero. And this is early Saturday morning programming, obviously targeted at children.
Pulled the plug, smashed the TV and threw it in the river.
Lol. There definitely are some good programs on tv today, assuming you like history and nature documentaries as I do. But outside of sports I have near zero use for it. Fortunately for me, I have just about everything I could ever possibly want to watch downloaded to my PC: movies, classic 50s-60s tv series, docs of various types, etc.
Which is one reason I guess shows like Duck Dynasty (which, like DeGrassi High, I've never seen) appeal to many Americans. But unlike DeGrassi High, they see normal Americans without the Hollyweird lib bias affecting the show. It would be interesting to know how many Dems watch DD...before and after the latest flap.
