Hurray - now writers need to be creative with what they do with TV instead of just throwing stuff in for shock effect. It's more than a score of 1 - it's going to allow writers who have a cleaner point of view be heard as well.

CHANGE THE CHANNEL!! That's all you have to do, people! Good grief, they're going to censor TV to the point where all we'll have to watch will be Disneyfied versions of everything. What does the President know about decency, anyway?? He's a fine one to talk, that immoral, war-mongering, gay-hating piece of pig manure. I wouldn't waste the saliva to spit on his ***, let alone trust any bill that he signs into law.

Woo hoo! Freedom of speech is totally unAmerican! I'm glad we're finally cracking down even harder than the censorships have been so far. Man, without the government, people would be able to say anything! Imagine the freedom! I mean chaos!

Here's a novel idea. Change the channel. Actually pay attention to your children, and what they are doing. And, start taking responsibility for your own actions. It's not that hard to take credit for the good and bad things you do, and watch.

Too bad. There are a lot of funny jokes we'll now only be able to see on DVD. Ah, well, there goes freedom of speech/expression!

It's sad that this president spends more time trying to take away people's rights instead of helping society more.

This was in force many years ago and was GOOD! Little kids could watch TV without getting boobs in the face!

great, more government trying to legislate morality, jump for joy.....
Here's an idea, how about you turn the "boob" tube off, it is not there to cater only to puritanical interest, could be why there are over 300 channels on my TV?
