520 _a"The Parents Television Council believes that too much prime-time TV is indecent. So indecent that it never misses a show...the Entertainment Tracking System (ETS), the PTC's database on more than 100,000 hours of programming...sounds like something the Pentagon would have if we had fought a war to depose Viacom's Sumner Redstone instead of Saddam Hussein. And in a way, the ETS is the nerve center of a war: the War on Indecency." (TIME) This article examines how "a year after Janet Jackson, activists and Congress are revving up their drive to clean up the airwaves. Now cable may be next. Has TV gone to far--or have its critics?"
