Think this all got sort of stired up during that MTV Misshap. Anyway the UK TV seems to be oki, much better than the US, not so parniod (from my view).
But WDZ is right you do need some kind of moderation  definatly.
RB Agrees that xBox advert was good though if he is thinking of the same one. Reisyboy: He is the priest to guide us from evil.. which isn’t working… so we call him Frier Tuck |

Keep in mind that the FCC does alot more then just regulate TV. They regulate Radio, Cell Phones, Fax, Land Line Phones, Modem Speeds... They have a controll for everything. Not all of it is bad, but alot of it needs some review and change for the current century.

Yeah, I have FCC logos beveled on almost any electronic appliance at my house (phones, cellphones, computers...) and I live 1000s of kms away from the US  |

At risk? 
What is the risk? Less sex and violence/profanity on TV? Fine with me... there's more than enough of it already. If I want to see sex, I have my internet connection, and if I want to see violence/profanity, I can rent a movie.
I doubt TV will be any less entertaining or interesting if the FCC enforces rules more strongly... |

RE: About Free Speech & "indicent" broadcasts...
I also tend to agree that too much violence and sex on every channel is not a good idea. I'm only 23 and I'm already getting tired of looking at Britney almost-completely-naked body in her last clip. As WDZ said, there's already more than enough ways to see violence and sex on our screen.
Adding delays to live shows won't change a thing.. as I said in my previosu post, let's just be honnest and let's ask the singers to stop: - appearing naked on tv to get some audience
- Talking like the worst retarded morons on subjects like women or racial issues, just to get some publicity (and then say that it's for "provocation only"... I so hate that
I don't think that would be very difficult to do  |

Television in England is lewd and boring everyone seems to be getting fixed on Gay couples kissing, sexual relationships of all kinds. And then some of our most famous managers become racist because there names haventy been mentioned in the papers for 3 weeks.
I personally dont watch that much Television but what i do watch i hate and dislike what I see

RE: About Free Speech & "indicent" broadcasts...
well there not only cracking down on TV programs, but also radio. i could care less about TV, its me radio that me wants.
a few weeks after the ancident my favorite radio station had to completly redo there programing, switch DJ times and stuff just becus the FCC is stricting the policy. my moms favorite program got supended for 2 weeks for just memtioning the jackson incident on air, then there time dely wasnt' workn right and the supend again, the they had to go "G" rating, which was a big change for the show.

boobs and violence makes tv great what would be more fittign to say to someone
i will use the tracy v roy argument off corination street:
original:
"i dont give a flying friut roy"
what we should of heard:
"shut the fuck up roy u nob jockey, i dont give a shit" (sory for swearing excessively)
u see swearwords enhance the emotion
now who here who isnt bent or female wants to see LESS boobs and violence
id rather see a violent boob filled swearing program than a fruity "can i take your coat ma'am" programme
thats just my opinion whats yours? |
