My cable provider doesn't give us MTV, so luckily I don't have to pay for the service of not having it.

However, I can program my TV to skip channels in the normal up-down scan, so that would be easy enough. Of course, you could just select the channel number, if you wanted. I don't know if it can automatically block a specific channel.

Thanks for the AFA links. I'd never heard of them before.

Digital Satellite Systems allow the user to block channels of their choosings or block programs based on ratings.  Or block certain times the satellite can be watched.

The user chooses a 4 digit password and can effectively get rid of all channels, programs, etc, they don't like.

One word of caution on the Drudge report that CBS knew what was going to happen. When they have a name to go with that insider revelation I will accept it, until  then CBS is innocent until proven guilty. All the other parties involved have said that CBS had no knowledge of the incident. This is the type of thing that gets repeated by all the talking heads and becomes defacto truth with no evidence to support it.
As for CBS's choice of half-time entertainment in general, yeah, you can slam them for that! Pretty bad decision for a Republican network.

Don Wildmon can be a bit loopy (I've talked to him on the phone before back when I worked in Christian radio), and sometimes completely misses the point of what he's watching, but he does have an effective organization that has made important people sit up and listen on occasion.

btw, you notice nobody's talking about the ppv "lingerie bowl"?

Jim and Marc,
I meant to get back to you sooner to answer your posts, but I have been so busy trying to catch up with work after missing so much with the snow and ice.  I do not know anything about the AFA nor its reputation except that the website article was given to me, and it seemed pretty right on in its concern for the Superbowl halftime show.  You are right about passing on information without having a name to go with it, and for that I apologize. I nor anyone other than those close to the situation know for sure what CBS knew or didn't know. Hopefully, some good will come from all the negative publicity, and major national events in the future will be more family oriented. I will be more careful in the future about the information that I post second hand.

I wasn't really meaning to be negative regarding the AFA.  Wildmon does a good job on these issues--it's just that sometimes he over-reaches.  I used to read his reports regularly, and about half would be on target and half would be innaccurate.  He has such a good organization, though, that good does at times come from what he does.

I'm going out on a limb and picking the Patriots to win the 2004 Super Bowl.
