What is proper

Today's paper offered a number of articles about potentially offensive 'public speech'.

The one writer was caught off guard by a television program's insistence in showing questionable material with his young daughter in the room at the time.

Some shows by their nature will clue into what they may show.

Springer for example...

This one found, for what ever editorial reasons, to show a graphic of a nude man, legs spread wide, with the offending area pixelated.

He was caught off guard, and the network invited something offensive into his home without permission.

Bad manners.
*****
There is a locally produced tv show where persons who feel their lovers, wives, husbands, boy or girlfriends are cheating on them agree to appear on the show.

The show then has its detectives follow the lover in question, going so far as to tape phone calls and place cameras in the 'victim's' home to record the goings on.

They have shown highly pixelated sex acts that go far a above anything I have seen in 'romantic' scenes in movies or mainstream networks.

Upon 'getting the needed evidence' and showing it to the cheated lover (unpixelated) they go to confront the couple.

An emotional fight occurs with yelling and denial and pain spread in large emounts.

These folks are 'ambushed' and blocked in, surrounded, and most often, on private property.
Going so far as to invade restaurants, places of business, dance clubs, parking lotgs, etc.

Emotional titilation and personal anguish sell.

As does the sex.

I know, I've watched it.

What I was suprized by what the sensors would allow.

The pixelated sex scenes.

The host then gives a moral "why what you are doing is wrong" to the cheating partner, this AFTER he himself, along with who knows how many others, has watched the sex video.

The cheated partner knew something was up or they wouldn't be on the show.
Why they don't trust their jut feelings...

And "all is made well".
The partner either "changes their way", or they "move on".

Because it is for the 'moral good', showing porn on the public airwaves, is justified as o'kay.

After all, it wasn't the host who was cheating, he is just making a living...
