Good for Them

It’s about time someone started standing up to the intrusion of the FCC into our homes.  I doubt seriously the networks will prevail, but unless they start standing up the American Family Association’s control of the FCC, it will only get worse.  Don’t get me wrong, I believe families should be able to watch programs together, and I believe the FCC should enforce a strict family hour of television each night, but beyond that I think they should butt the hell out.  The real issue here is that the AFA and their ilk aren’t just protesting what they believe is profane material, they are attempting to control what you and I, as free citizens, are even allowed to watch!  If the networks don’t start pushing back, they will see the FCC exert even greater control over them; and once they’re done with the networks, cable won’t be too far behind.
