I'm popular culture challenged. Aside from requiring massive reparations from anyone I can think of, it leaves me adrift when I see the name "The Shield". What is it?

I bet that BK wasnt getting bang for their buck anyway. I have no idea what "The Shield" is either.

I understand what the Wildmon's boycotts of Midas (commercial with gratuitous topless septugenarian woman) and "The Shield" are all about. Any word on what the deal with VW is?

It's a "gritty" (read "bashing") cop drama, about a sinister, yet powerful squad leader and some of the "unorthodox" ways he dispenses justice. Sound like a yawner? It should. It's like every other cop opera since Hill Street Blues.

what's next for OMM & OMD? Telling sponsors of NASCAR racing to pull their sponsorships because the cars go too fast and someone might get hurt? I think Mark Chesnutt said it best when he sang; "I'm gonna get a life, that's what I'm gonna do, and starting now, you oughta find one too..."

These "organizations" have WAY TOO MUCH time to complain about a TV program that they don't have too watch, and if they object the sponsors, hey, don't eat at BK or buy a VW. Spend the time raising your families and turn off the TV.
