"...will lose sponsors and viewers and eventually will go away, anyway."

Perhaps you should take the time and read the ENTIRE article, for a change. It's says they will air it without Commercial backing. They will pay for it out of their own pockets. ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNBC, CNN, HNN, have been losing viewers by the millions each year, but has that stopped them from spewing their slanted rhetoric? NO!!!

I propose a solution. Would you object to any of the following terms being subtituded during the horrific murder scenes?

"Aw, Horsefeathers!"
"Shucks!"
"For corn sakes!"
"Well, Fiddle dee dee!"
"Bust my britches!"


?

So what is your basic issue with them shoing this 9/11 documentary on CBS?

Are you saying that it's slanted, are you being a priss about the language, or is it just that you don't want to be reminded of 9/11?

Are you kidding?

It's too much fun to take portions of them out of context and then write sarcastic tripe in response to them.

My point, the article be damned, is that I don't need a bunch of pinch-mouthed, panties-in-a-wad nannies like the AFA telling me what I should or should not allow my children to watch or to read.

That responsibility rests with the parents.

All else smacks of censorship on a level which I think is downright dangerous.

The AFA is not much different than the taliban nitwits, then, is it?

Perhaps my religious beliefs require me to expose my children to profane and vulgar material via the television networks.

Where is your sense of tolerance for diversity?

Where are you gonna draw the line?

Pat Robertson don't like "Blue's Clues"?

What are you gonna do, write letters to Nickolodean and demand they not show it anymore, or are you gonna turn the damn TV off?

Sheesh!

Some people get their panties in a wad over stuff that really, really does not matter.

ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNBC, CNN, HNN, have been losing viewers by the millions each year, but has that stopped them from spewing their slanted rhetoric? NO!!!

Because there will always be someone that watches them and they know that. And that knowledge is bolstered by the very fact that you and the AFA are incensed by what they do.

And they ain't doing it for free.

They know that the products that sponsor other shows are purchased by the people that watch.

Do you honestly think they're gonna do it for free?

No, they'll give up one every once in a while, just to keep the illusion going.

Who cares, anyway?

Just turn the damn TV off.
