censorship in media

They shouldn't be censored, but unfortunately they are. About the closest thing you are going to get to the truth via Normal Media is Lou Dobbs on CNN. The rest you will have to go to www.infowars.com and www.prisonplanet.com ...you can find a LOT of truth on YouTube as well.

Well yes and no we got to somewhat protect the youth of america. but by like 8=- pm the should just make radio and tv uncensored. because by then the little kids should all be in bed.

Censorship,is necessary,wherever appropriate,in the nation's interest,let alone TV,radio or Movies.

I do believe that they should censor - tv & radio programs when the kids are home and awake - however after say like 9pm - they should let us as adults watch & hear whatever we want to. I mean in the end it's all a choice by us as to what we want to watch or hear - if you don't like it then turn the tube off or change the channel. I think this is a choice that should not be taken away from us!!!

Hmmm, well I do think it should be censored to an extent, but isn't that why peole like Howard Stern went to Siruis radio? They have no limits on places like that! I mean, there are plenty of places that you can view mature material... I'm a big fan of many of the HBO and Showtime Series's like, Entourage, Weeds, Sopranos, Curb you Enthusiasm, etc... Many of the shows aren't censored and I think they are hands down the best shows on TV today... I really don't think that the government controls much of the networks... The main reason why is because most of the major networks have to censor themselves quite a bit to appeal to a broader audience... Well, thats my 2 cents, hopefully it will earn me 2 cents...

What do you mean by "governmental control"? As a capitalist society where the media isn't run by the government, the government doesn't have any direct control over the media, only what information they'll actually GIVE to the media. As for the FCC, it is controlling the sensibility factors such as swearing and profanity to be more decent for public eyes and ears. When it comes to swearing and vulgarity, it has nothing to do with with freedom of speech, freedom of speech is about political ideas and dissent, not your right to use profanity. Explain your opinion with real words.
