One group accounts for 99.9% of the obscenity complaints made to the FCC for all issues outside of the Janet boob thing.

2400% increase in reports this year, which chairman Michael Powell used in front of congress as a reason to support tougher fines and actions from the FCC. What he either didn't know or failed to mention was that this one group basically is the ONLY source of complaints.

A concerted attack by a small but well funded group will dictate the obscenity landscape on broadcast TV and radio. Stunning.

(oh yeah, this isn't another american bashing thread. It's a polite reminder to those who vote and elected a conservative government as to what you get as a result)
