Sorry I wanted to test my skill and see how long a update should be so I am posting one today and Monday!!
Here is my test draft
In the recent years the censorship on Television has tightened its already iron grip on "profanities". In the past few years I have noticed certain scenes in movies that appear on T.V. have vanished from the air-ways, some might say its about time restrictions but I don't think thats true. After a certain Super Bowl incident involving one of the Jacksons and Mr. Timberlake, the FCC started to pull the plug on more sexual scenes, and swearing on T.V. but not violence. The keep people slamming each other into tables, hitting each other with chairs, fist fighting, gun fights, and just look at any of the CSIs that may not always be violent but there are some disturbing scenes, and people wonder why violence is on the rise among teens and tweens. Some even go as far as placing the blame only on Video Games, only because they are interactive.
As the FCC some directors, writers, producers are getting upset, even some have dedicated episodes to making fun of the FCC or how insane there policies are, like Family guy's PTV episode that included a song and dance about how insensible there polices are, and South Park, well they showed what Comedy Central would allow, the drew Allah giving Peter Griffin a helmet, but Comedy Central stopped it, but they allowed, in the same episode, Jesus, Carson Kressly, George W. Bush and, Angelina Jolie shitting on the American Flag, mid you this was after the controversial Allah comic form the U.K. and it may be against Islam's religion to depict Allah as a picture but as I view it they make fun of every religion on the face of the planet so why should one be more special then another.
The internet is becoming more and more a valid form of entertainment, more and more internet T.V. shows come out every month. Some have critical praise, take the example of Pure Pwnage it has become so popular that the cast and crew (well the one man crew is in the show) were able to quit there jobs because the make off of their sponsors, and from selling merchandise. Hak.5 is another example. They took the idea of The Screen Savers and made it better or at least different, but recently they have added a Call For Help feel with taking calls from there viewers. This leads me to my point about the internet if this quality of Show can be produced cheaper, less limiting like if it was on T.V. and much more available then T.V. how long until the FCC want to control the internet shows.
If T.V. keeps getting more limited as its current trend then more and more people from our generation will take their ideas for T.V. shows to the net and T.V. might eventually become obsolete.

I completely agree with these staments. as i game i am not a crazy killing person. if you met me on the street. You would possible think i'm one of the nicest people you'd meet in this life time.
On the other hand the FCC does need to be "showen the path" with the CSI shows and such there is possible more violance and dergoatory messages in them then in most video games. I don't denie that there are some pretty bad games oput there but there is a lot of mad shows and movies.
p.s. sorry if i spelled something wrong :P
Yeah i feel the saem way and i was really impressed with the end, thing are on a downward slope towards the internet, and is a matter of time until, maybe the internet wont be so free. How far will the freedom of speech take us until the FCC thinks it has crossed the line. I don not believe there is a need for them to block things on TV, if you are not old enoguh to to see it then its the paraents falt to stop them. they can even go as far as the V-chip.
As for the video games thing i agree again, like trying to take games liek GTA and other violant shooters off the market, for blood, well they need to go watch a CST and then use the same rules they apply to video game to the show they let slide.
