1 edit | Remove the FCC from TV/radio regulation only. =p
the FCC exists to bring order to the chaos of controling who gets what air waves at what frequency, and they do a good job of this. but their power to control the content of TV and Radio should be removed as the industry can police itself just fine in that department. we dont see pornos on basic cable because no advertisers would sponcer the time for such a program and as such they dont show. big deal a boob jumped out during a superbowl and maybe some kids saw it, but they have allready seen full nudity from playboys their friends sneak into school. same thing with radio Stern is on the air because hes popular, remember ratings are the best control for content not the FCC. so let the FCC do its job of controling Telco mergers and Cable co assimilations and who gets what megahertz and what call sign or what cell frequency, but keep them away from TV and Radio content and maybe they would be able to focus on what they were founded to do. |
