Could you elaborate why the name Don Wildmon raises a red flag for you? I am a member of the American Family Association and subscribe to American Family Online, an Internet filtering service provided through them. I have appreciated their boycotts over the years, trying to put economic pressure on companies promoting immorality. Currently they are sponsoring a boycott of Proctor and Gamble because of their documented policies and advertising campaigns promoting the homosexual lifestyle. Their web sites contain more information for those interested.

Sure. While quite a few of the boycotts are for reasons I agree with, some of the boycotts he's organized through the years have been beyond ridiculous. Protesting "Cheers" and "Taxi" as being overly sexual? Protesting "Mighty Mouse" cartoons for encouraging cocaine use? I've checked his website and his alerts- it seems to me that any show beyond "Rugrats" on Nickelodeon gets Wildmon's "red alert". If you scream "wolf" every time a bull mastiff approaches you, the words start to lose meaning and you start looking like a fool, leading people to question your motives. That's all I'm saying.
