If I had kids I would be just as appalled, trouble is that TV and Radio are free- so you are free not to watch it. Or turn off the set after 8pm.

Free media needs viewers to have an audience for commercials- they need racy crap to get viewers since they are competing with cable - which is almost all R rated nowadays.

I do not have kids. I do, however have nieces and nephews. I have no idea how you arrived at the conclusion "TV is free so you are free not to watch it" since when and HOW do those 2 statements connect? Just because the word "free" is in both statements? otherwise NO, I should not have to turn the set off at 8pm. Smut should not rule. OK? And smut dealers and perverts and addicts should not rule either.
