This bugs me to no end! Why is it alright for TV to show a 20 year old kid get killed, but its not alright to say shit or show a boob? :mad: I CANT STAND the media in the US right now :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
The Olypics are live.
NBC doesn't have the vid on their site even.
"Too tramatic for the general Public"....
and we wonder why we are oblivious to the struggles in the rest of the world. :rolleyes:
We can send Teenagers off to war, but we must censor thier media expierence becuase it may give them nightmares :confused:
I wonder this too. If we draw the line, draw it clearly.
Watching the news the other day, Good Morning America showed security vid of a 15 year old girl getting a gangsta style beatdown in a subway. horribly vivid. Kids were watching it with me. Gave me the shivers, and the look on the boys' face was like terror and confusion.
A sporting incident though....those happen. and will continue to happen. Hell americas funniest home videos was showing quad wrecks. Nichole and I were like "not funny" kids laughing. Dude casing a jump and going over the front is not funny. Unless he walks away. :lol: then it is hilarious.
aaron superman'ing = funny.
:lol:

Its one thing if its live, but they showed it a couple of time. Someone told me that some well know announcer (dont remember who) gave the play by play.
I just cant stand the media now adays. Pisses me off to no end!
