Nickelodeon pimping che guevara Reader Rob D. sent me the following email:
First off I'd like to say great job with the blog, I've been reading it for some time now and I visit it reapetedly throughout the day. That being said, I'm a 32 year old American-born Cuban. I'm married and have 2 little girls, one who's almost 4 and the other almost 2. We watch a ton of children's programing and I could swear that tonight I saw the absolute lowest of the low. Nickelodion has been promoting a new show called the Naked Brothers Band about 2 little kids who start a band. these guys can't be older thann 12 or 13. I could swear that one of them in the comercial is wearing a Che shirt with a Cuban flag on it! Plase post and ask if anyone else has seen this. I am 99% sure I saw it but it was a quick clip and I was so shocked I almost came out of my seat. I feel like there must be something we can do about this. I was very impressed with the speed in which the word got out there about the Target stores and the quickness of the results. Anyway, hope you can post about this and thanks alot for your time. To be honest, I was skeptical. But unfortunately, Nickelodeon's "Naked Brothers Band" kids show is, indeed, pimping the Butcher of la Cabaña:
Man,there is just something wrong with that picture! It creeps me out too!
So do (Viacom) MTV own:
1)VH-1 (obvious),
2)MTV2, MTV3
3)"Spike TV"(Which used to be TNN, sadly)
4)(And this may surprise you CMT: Country Music Television)
There are probably others, but to me Viacom is THE WORST Media company that exists Today!

Yep, they certainly indoctrinate from the cradle to the grave. Viacom (the parent company) owns all of the following:
MTV
MTV2
mtvU
Nickelodeon
BET
Nick at Nite
TV Land
NOGGIN
VH1
Spike TV
CMT
Comedy Central
Showtime
The Movie Channel
Flix
Sundance Channel
CBS
It certainly shed's light on why I'm always asking myself "Why is there nothing good on cable these days?"
That's an awesome idea!
I didn't read your last sentence in your post to me.
"Banning Nick in my house". I've already done that.
"Getting rid of cable". I've seriously considered that too.
"Giving away all my possesions". I may be a social conservative but I'm not dumb.
"Going up on a hill and waiting for rapture". That was an uncalled for statement.
I suggest you stop watching childrens cartoons it's rotting your brain.
It's true I've seen far more cartoons as a parent than I ever did as a child.
That picture of the shirtless boy with the tatoos is a pedophile's dream. What are his parent's thinking.
