    TV fidgets on an obscenity tightrope

    http://www.orlandosentinel.com/enter...l-home-entlife


    the war continues ...

    When the networks haven't acted, stations have stepped in to avoid complaints that could threaten their licenses. In November, 65 ABC affiliates, including WFTV-Channel 9 in Orlando, declined to air the World War II drama Saving Private Ryan with its coarse language. The film had caused no such ruckus when broadcast unedited in 2001 and 2002.

    Its them family value mother fuckers forming complaints using the internet.

    Letsss see...

    9 Million people see somthing 126 complain and the broadcasters get fined millions by the FCC? What ever happened to "Majority Rules".

    Somthing aint right about that at all. Oh...
    There I go thinking like a little person again.

    Its called Old money vs New Money.
    Just follow the money and why... Then you will see its not about obscinity at all. Its always about money.
    Read "The Great Gatsby".
