To me, it's just one more example why "freedom of the press" needs
redefining. What I'm saying specfically is, people who have the
wherewithall to put audio/visual information into my living room should
be answerable to someone for their actions. If my TV is tuned to a
cartoon show for my grandchildren, I don't want a newsman breaking into
the program to show me someone blowing their brains out.
