here's what you do. you stop letting your kids watch spongebob. eventually, profits for their advertisers will drop, and they will stop advertising on spongebob. spongebob will go off tv.
what you don't do is rely on the gov't to teach your children what's acceptable and what's not. that's your job as a father.
"standards of decent behavior". define that, because the Congress and the FCC have failed to do so. the only law saying what's decent and what's not are the "7 Dirty Words"
as far as hbo... if this "let the gov't tell you what is ok" mentality continues, it won't be long before hbo/cable/ppv is regulated
if anyone is curious what he means by supporting howard, go here
donate to John Kerry through his website. in the occupation, put/HowardSternFan . also, support Congressman Jose Serrano, D-NY, 16th Bronx, a very vocal opponent to the recent FCC actions, as well as our favorite PATRIOT Act
the worst offender is the AG. look up an article about him in a recent Vanity Fair (or whatever). i believe the title of the article is John Ashcroft's Patriot Games. how this guy is an elected official freaks me the hell out. he's a Christian Mullah Omar.
good for you. what's offensive to you may not be offensive to me
frankly, i find your sig to be offensive. you may no long own any weapons. that flies in the face of the constitution, which is exactly what gov't regulating PUBLIC airwaves is
the FCC rulings are completely subjective! aside from the Supreme Court ruling on the "7 dirty words", THERE ARE NO LAWS OUTLAWING WHAT CAN BE SAID. what is offensive to one person isn't necessarily offensive to someone else. the gov't simply cannot make up the rules as they go along, especially when it plays into them pushing their agenda
So all Howard Stern has to do is go on XM, or cable (wait, he _did_ that.)
The FCC only regulates radio and broadcast TV, and in 2004 these are rapidly becoming a small fraction of the available media.
Not for long. The FCC is openly discussing regulating cable tv and satellite radio. With laws like the PATRIOT Act on the book, how long do you think it is before other mediums (say, the net) get regulated to?
Howard is smart, very smart. However, when you are going up against an organization such as the Fellowship, which has been organizing for 15 years, it's hard to do anything. Especially when that organization controls the gov't.
Congressman Serrano (D-NY, 16th) said it best last week during arguments over this bill (he was one of the few that voted Nay). "The best protection we have is not this bill, just turn the channel, switch the station."
hit up p2p and search for serrano-0312.mp3... it's a good speech.
