This chapter is very timely for me because just this past week, the local station in Medford, where I live, was in some hot water for airing a provocative sex-advice show at 8pm. Town officials were disgusted with the pornographic images and conversations that were being aired at a time where children could have been watching.
This channel is usually airing shows that the whole family can enjoy (but probably wouldn't). Sometimes there is a local artist on giving painting lessons for kids and other times theres the old guy who likes to read the newspaper to the TV and thinks hes Wolf Blitzer. Because this station usually attracts children or the elderly, it's sexual content was not welcomed.
The solution to this problem was to force the creator of the show to air the show after 10 o’clock. In a case like this, it is obvious that some regulations need to be instituted for the sake and reputation of an entire city.
