I havent had a television for many years and its FANTASTIC!!
My life is my own. I freely without influence run my own life.
TELEVISION.
Murder, Rape, Torture, all delivered in the most graphic detail possible, directly into your childrens minds, every day. Then they tell us its bad parenting.
In the 90's, sitcoms such as Seinfeld, frequently portrayed characters talking whilst chewing. Now, this seems to be commonplace in America, socially acceptable.

The internet is far worse as far as those things go. The beheading that happened in Iraq awhile ago wasn't shown on TV but children went to go see it online. So I wouldn't say TV shows things in the most graphic detail possible.

On the internet YOU choose what you want to view.
On the television THEY choose what you will view.
In the uk you will see ADULT programs being advertised during the day when children are watching. Its not possible to sheild them from this unless you remove the telly.
I agree that ANYTHING can be viewed on the internet but its your choice.
