So, get rid of the cable, rent movies. There are alternatives to TV. It's not the be all to end all.
Well, as I said, I just watch news shows and sports and my kids aren't kids any more. But compare shows from when I was growing up with what is on now. How did things sink so low? Because we let it - by sitting back and not complaining. The public airwaves belong to the public. We have a right to complain if we feel the FCC isn't doing its job and I have complained. Not sure it mattered, but at least I tried.
