TV Show : censorship in television and radio in the US
The concept behind censorship is that we should protect people, and particularly children, from inappropriate content. The basic idea is that, as a society, we have certain standards, spoken and unspoken, that we agree to abide by in order to provide civility and cohesion. The challenge is knowing how to balance these standards to accommodate some without offending others and how to adjust to the changes in society that change the unspoken standards.
In the 1960′s, a television show aired that sparked extreme controversy because it was the first television series that showed a married couple sleeping in the same bed. The show: The Flintstones. At the time, it was an unspoken rule that no television couple should be shown in the same bed, but society was changing and so the standards were as well.

Music : Do you think all rap or hip-hop affects society
I can no longer defend most of what passes for hip hop these days. Mainstream hip hop has come to glorify the some of the worst aspects of society. I do not live in the ghetto so I don’t know if hip hop is an accurate reflection of ghetto life or if hip hops portrayal of ghetto culture is distorted. For the sake of people living in these areas I hope the answer is the latter. The one thing that can’t be denied is that today’s mainstream hip hop promotes a lifestyle that reduces human beings to materialistic nihilists who will do anything for the almighty dollar. That some people see this lifestyle as cool is mind boggling to me. Why have we Americans always been so quick to romanticize the criminal elements of society? From the Italian mafia to 50 Cent we have always had in affinity for gangsters. Scarface is like a cultural icon in this country. His face can be seen in rap videos and his posters can be found plastered on the walls of college fraternities. My question is why are we always allowing ourselves to be desensitized to the point where we not only condone, but embrace lifestyles that we should know are immoral?
