"...a climate of fear, intimidation and intolerance of views that differ from its own"

All of which used to be called "taste" and "judgment". I can't watch network television with my young children without seeing ads for penis enhancing drugs, ads for erectile dysfunction remedies, ads for antidepressants touting "no sexual side effects!", or ads for shows featuring blatantly homosexual characters talking about their sexuality. Does the existence of perversion in the world mean that it has to be on television?
Needless to say, we have almost entirely eliminated television from our house. We probably miss some entertaining and educational programming, but it's just not worth sifting through the filth.

Yah and then when neilsen goes off and reports that fewer folks are watching the tube the networks get all yanked off and claim Nielsen can't be telling the truth and try and figure out what happened.
