Broadcast TV, like the town square, is a shared domain, a community place, and there should be enforceable standards.

I understand where you are coming from, really I do. But until the television becomes a necessity in every American household, I don't see "enforceable standards" coming any time soon.

I don't understand what you mean. We've had enforceable standards, enforced by the FCC, since TV began. Its just that now there appears to be no will to enforce them, and after people have been bombarded by crudity long enough, they have come to accept such things as commonplace.
