There’s way to much smut on TV and the sad fact is that most parents let their TVs raise their children. I’m glad to see the FCC do something about this.

Me too. I just wish the FCC would regulate more stuff so I wouldn't have to worry about my kids getting their hands on it. What about books? Gosh, have you SEEN some of those books out there? Catcher in the Rye? Can you believe that's required high school reading some places?

And the Bible! You know there is stuff in there about whores and sex?!? I can't believe some people expose their kids to this stuff!

I just hope the FCC sets its sights a little higher than just cable television. Some of the smut out there is just absurd.

I've never understood why people feel such a strong need to get their rocks off watching crap of this type on TV anyway. Let's face it - most homes have multiple sets and in most homes it's TV that babysits the kids, not Mom or Dad, and the V-chip doesn't always filter the garbage out.

If TV sex is the only way you can get your jollies, then go buy or rent a porno.

You're happy to see the government step in and parent children in lieu of parents handling things themselves?

Sure you're on the right site?

[Melas]

This is just the growth of big, tyrannical government. Nothing more, and certainly nothing laudable. This is downright sickening, and more so that any freeper would applaud it. Disgusting.

I have an easier solution for you. DON'T watch it.

Cart before horse, Friend.

Be gladder that some of us keep lockdown on the tube. No big screens here - I have a 5" B & W to pick up local stations; and the boys can also pick up same when they can unplug from games. Their TV, games and computer is out in the common area - not in their rooms.

But, staring at TV is just not what we do - ever.

Those who allow such to become normal in their family life have only themselves to blame.
