Both things (killing and showing Janet jackson's boob in the super bowl) are illegal. In that sense, they are comparable.

Agreed, but that doesn't put the point of the discussion down. There has to be a regulation.
You cannot compare the super bowl incident to Peron's censorship (I am too young to remember it but not too young to know it), one thing has logical justification (and in fact, many US citizens agree with the FCC) and the other is just political dictatorship. Who is, with all due respect, "out of it" then?

I used to lived in Mexico, and I know about Goverment-controled TV...(it sucks

*cough* Government controlled TV is in every country of the world.
The goverment, by definition, owns the frequency, and has every legal right to place fines if inappropriate content is shown at inappropriate times. TV is public, so someone must control it because anyone can see it just by plugging a RF antenna to a TV.

Definitely, kids are not right nowadays... what does kids watching TV to do with subjective musical tastes?
And by the way, I DO agree about the nanny thing, it just doesn't serve as an argument for this, but it's definitely true.
