✪RION Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 [color=#008000][b]The news:[/b][/color] [url="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12/13/ptc-the-walking-dead_n_2295044.html"]http://www.huffingto..._n_2295044.html[/url] [color=#008000][b]Since 1995, the conservative advocacy group, Parents Television Council, has been looking out for families’ best interests by submitting complaints and grievances to the FCC when they deem television programs to be harmful to children. The watchdog group unleashes a multitude of media campaigns against TV programs each year and continually pressures advertisers, cable operators and networks to remove what it considers to be inappropriate content. If you watch any TV, or at least are aware of what’s being broadcast on a nightly basis, then you can only imagine how many programs the PTC is not a fan of. Dexter, Without a Trace, Breaking Bad and Glee have all been in the group’s crosshairs over the years.[/b][/color] [color=#008000][b]So, what do you think YCM? Are the PTC right about this one or are they just attacking a popular show?[/b][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Revan of the Sith Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 They are conservative. That explains it all. I really don't care though. I didn't like The Walking Dead comic, I didn't like the TV series, and I don't like the video game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizarus Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Is that why cartoons stopped being good at the end of the 90s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raine Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Parental censorship is stupid, it's overprotective parents who believe in this innocence and glory days of television of the Andy Griffith show and Leave it to Beaver. They don't want to blame thier kids so they blame media for their shortcomings and failings instead of making them responible. Action movies are to blame for school violence and bullying. Sex in movies and tv is the reason for teenage pregnancies. Parents are biased idiots. I like my first amendment~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 So much hyperbole in this topic... You know what? I agree. TWD should probably be rated TV-MA. I mean, I dislike Media Watchdog Moral Guardian groups, but all that happened is people are disputing a rating, and the only response you guys have is "DEM CONSERVATIVZ." Come on.
