Don't Tell Me What I Can & Can't Watch

The question of how far government bureaucrats should go to protect American families from profane television content has inched closer to the U.S. Supreme Court. On Thursday, the Federal Communications Commission appealed a court ruling last month that struck down existing indecency policy on grounds that it was unconstitutional. That ruling by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York has left the industry without federal guidelines as to what is and isn't acceptable content. The decision was hailed as a First Amendment victory by TV executives but blasted by family-values advocates who worry it will lead to more profanity and nudity during prime-time hours when children are tuned in. "The airwaves have become a battleground for networks to out-cuss, out-sex and out-gore each other, and sadly it is children and families who are in the crossfire," PTC president Tim Winter said. Apparently, nobody informed Mr. Winter and his posse of PTC puritans that scheduling reruns of The Brady Bunch just isn’t gonna fly in this day and age. Can somebody please teach the PTC how to use a remote control?
