Did the Teens use a Font as well ???

[AlexandriaDuke]

Does anyone think the FCC should even exist??????

[billhilly]

Are you suggesting that they were fonting?

TV today is not just a vast wasteland, but a filthy sewer as well.

Bill O showed the clip this eve........
Not prime time stuff......
If it popped up while I was watching the tube
with my young'ens I would have lost it.....

[Dr. Scarpetta]

I saw it on O'Reilly also, and it wasn't good for kids to see. He warned everyone ahead of time.

[OmegaMan]

Yeah, he warned everyone, to make sure they stayed tuned. He always does that, he does a segment on a sexy topic and then shows the video over and over again. Later he did a segment on Jessica Simpson and made sure to show her striptease car washing video lol, even though it had nothing to do with the story.

I am gross and perverted
I’m obsessed ’n deranged
I have existed for years
But very little had changed
I am the tool of the government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you

I may be vile and pernicious
But you can’t look away
I make you think I’m delicious
With the stuff that I say
I am the best you can get
Have you guessed me yet?
I am the slime oozin’ out
From your tv set

No it is not. Broad brush, etc.

There are some very good programs on. Of course that statement eliminates any network channel.

My kids love the History Channel, Disney Channel, to name only a few. There really is some good, wholesome, educational stuff out there.

[Izzy Dunne]

I am the slime from your video
Oozin' along on your living room floor.
I am the slime from your video
Can't stop the slime, people look at me go.

Are you kidding?!? Some 'conservatives' think there should be a federal moral police.

Bill O'Reilly: guilty of occassional Heterosexual Propogandizing

(just joshing...but I thought it sounded fitting given the video tidbits
all the off-the-rails judges he covers)

[Sic Luceat Lux]

abc, cbs, nbc, cnn and msnbc have been Locked Out on all the tv's in my home-long time ago.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

How old are your kids?

[OmegaMan]

If he's going to do that though then he should stop complaining about the culture, and stop taking the side of those who would censor it too. He's being a hypocrite, thats my point, titillating his audience for ratings at the same time he's condemning it.

[AnotherUnixGeek]

Does anyone think the FCC should even exist??????

Not me. In this case, those who find this type of material should make use of the V-Chip or other lockout technology and stop bothering the rest of us.

[Sic Luceat Lux]

How old are your kids?

I didn't mention kids. How'd you know, lol?
They are 20, 17 and 13.
(And btw, I was listening to Laura Ingram, as I always try to each morning, and I think it was about two weeks ago that she was discussing what's on MTV. Well, I won't mention here what Ingram said and I'm no dumbXXX but I truly didn't know that this kind of flatout nasty garbage is on MTV. So, that same evening after getting home from work, I added the two MTV channels to Locked/Blocked Out.)

[CGASMIA68]

Does the "V" chip delete segments that are popped in your face unannounced or the entire program?I don't know but I think the issue here is the surprise tactic....that deserves the fine more than the content.....Its deliberate manipulation and the producers know it be fore hand.

[mewzilla]

Viacom and the Dems. Just more heart and soul of America.

SNORT.
