According to MediaWeek, 99.9% of the FCC complaints in 2004 (not including Janet Jackson's infamous wardrobe malfunction) have been from one organization, the Parents Television Council. 99.9%
Maybe it's time someone starts a leftist group with a narrow political agenda that compliments the networks for airing (and the FCC for allowing them to air) entertaining television programs for adults. Because I think if all those red-state-of-minded people had their way, we wouldn't have Desperate Housewives to look forward to every Sunday.
I always agreed that the whole Ms. Jackson (Janet if you're nasty) thing was a little out-of-control and not appropriate for all the little kids watching the SuperBowl and deserving of all the complaints. But regular programming should be monitored by PARENTS. Not some right-wing Christian group who hates gays and thinks abstinence is the answer to teen pregnancy and AIDS, all in the name of God.
