Overview
Short takes and summary boxes present a brief pro-and-con debate about what, if anything, should be done to protect the public from sex, violence, and coarse language on television and elsewhere. The text touches on how the issue came to be so divisive, the extent to which the Federal Communications Commission should regulate broadcast television and radio, the prospect of extending indecency regulations to new media such as the Internet and satellite TV, and the use of filtering software to restrict computer users' access to indecent material online. Sidebars provide information on key court cases and legislation. Annotation ©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, ORBook Details
