The parent. The government puts ratings on tv shows, movies, games etc… It’s the parents job to make an informed decision about what they want their children to watch.
Part of being a parent is guiding your child, setting boundaries and limitations. Yes I know kids can get through the child locks in the web and tv, but as a parent it’s your job to monitor them as much as possible.
Also the government has certain limitations for paid cable programming. Hence why you can see a MA rated movie on HBO with no problem. While the obscenity rule is more leanient towards cable stations, in sure public network television will be held to a hire standard. There are stricter rules on children’s programming that will continue to stay in place. I think the problem is parents letting their children watch adult content. Your 7 year old shouldn’t be up watching TRuE BLOod at 10pm on hbo if your so worried about censorship .
ummm, government?! Since when did you lay on your back and get pregnant with the government?! PLEASE! Responsibility squarely falls on the parent (s)! The government makes decisions based on what the people want, sometimes not, NOT what my child, or what your child needs/wants.
wow i dont know where i was this summer but i totally missed this ruling, thanks for the article because i was wondering why on this new show on Bravo this girl was saying pu$$y like every other word and i was thinking huh i thought that word was censored but now i understand
