Public Television Kids

Why is the government trying to censor satelite radio?

An Alaskan senator recently brought up the possibility of censoring satellite radio and television and giving that responsibility to the morons at the FCC. What happened to the rights of Americans to just turn off programing they find offensive. Who’s business is it? I understand censoring public airwaves, but to tell me what I can and can’t watch and listen to in my own home on my own dime is oppressive. If I don’t want my kids to see or hear something, they don’t. I call that parenting. But the FCC is not my parents and will not tell me what I can and cannot watch on my own dime. What do you think.

Freedom of speech is such a relative term.

Everyone has their own idea of how things should be and when people like the Alaskan senator recommend things like that and no one protests and votes it out, then we lose another one of our liberties.
