RE: Under New Chief, FCC Considers Widening Its Reach

I think the whole indecency campaign is just to keep porn valuable. You wouldn't be able to sell it as easily if it were allowed to be everywhere. Also, people probably wouldn't give a shit after awhile. Once a taboo like this is widely exposed, Christians may no longer need to giggle when they say the word "penis." Once the whole family sits around and watches hours upon hours of fucking on thanksgiving, they might be comfortable with themselves and their bodies to forgo the watching of violently repressed homosexual ball rituals every year. The FCC is just trying to keep the billion dollar porn industry alive and thriving.
