Stock up on action-flicks, too. Next thing, they'll outlaw them. ;-)

MCCAIN, LIEBERMAN TAKE NEXT STEP IN EFFORT TO REQUIRE MEDIA VIOLENCE LABELING
May 2, 2000

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Senator John McCain (R-AZ), Chairman of the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, and Senator Joe Lieberman (D-CT) today introduced a bill to create a uniform labeling system on all movies, video games, video programs and music products. The "Media Violence Labeling Act" amends the Cigarette labeling and Advertising Act to apply warning label requirements to violent media products. The bill does not include TV programs. "There is a consensus in the scientific community that exposure to violent images through the media is harmful to kids. This is common sense to the rest of us," McCain said. "The producers of these products have a moral obligation to inform consumers of violent content. What this legislation does is impose a legal requirement to do so."
