14. I support censorship of broadcast tv-check out soaps sometime (violence)
Cable tv (HBO in particular) is a whole different matter, as it's by subscription. People with kids or delicate sensibilities should not be offended by hearing crude language on network tv, nor should there be overly graphic violence or nudity.


My soap (GH) has been extremely violent of late. This week features the bloody death of a sociopath who had just apparantly killed a child and threw his body in a swamp. This is following several shootings, a brutal rape, and the glorification of a mobster and his hitman over the past several years. I wish there was too much sex on the show!
