And that's why it's worth complaining about grossly offensive use of the airwaves, such as Frankie Boyle's 'joke' last week. Complaining about this one incident won't change the world, but a sustained and consistent public debate about what is and is not acceptable in our broadcast media can and does eventually affect those who make and enforce the rules. |
And still they bite... this is so easy it isn't fun anymore!
See ya!
