Ok, enough with the banning!
What is with this country? On NPR I heard a bit about our government leaders pressuring the FCC to do more to "clean up" obscenities from the Networks.
One commented how he wanted to clean up all of cable too. Would someone please explain to me how Bono saying "fucking" (as an adjective) is somehow obscene?
It doesn't even mean anything offensive, it's just there for emphasis.
I will not pay $60 for cable or satellite if they are paved over for children. Children can live quite well hearing the words "fuck" and "shit" if we'd stop acting like they're as bad as blowing people's brains out.
Oh yes, then I read that the FCC is penalizing San Francisco's KRON channel for interviewing the cast members of Puppetry of the Penis, who were (not surprisingly) caught on camera briefly (ahem). Well so what? It's skin folks. We all have it. In any European country, they would laugh at us for being little kids.
