Soapy Porn
Permalink  

I just read this article on the BBC Website.


Apparently there was a scene in Emmerdale in which a character was looking at a porn site with a 'fictional' address.  Kinda like me making up the web address www.titsandarse.com, I guess.  So when this viewer put the web address into his browser, it came up with a real porn site.


And complained.


Well, hang on a minute.  If that viewer found porn objectionable, why the hell was she (and I think it's fair to suggest that it was a she) looking it up on the internet?  And when she found porn on the internet, how could she possibly hold ITV responsible?


Duh....

some people will complain about anything... I find that so annoying!

For example when Jerry Springer the Opera was on TV last year it receved the most compliants in the uk ever. A poll afterwards showed that a high number (cant remember what) of people didnt even watch it. Most who complained were christains also.. but I watched it with a christain friend of mine who greatly enjoyed it. If anyone acaully bothered to watch it to the end they would have seen it put jesus and god in a good light...
I think the moral Majority if often wrong.

Which seems like a good enough reason to quote Green Day:


 


I pledge allegiance to the underworld
One nation under dog
There of which I stand alone
A face in the crowd
Unsung, against the mold
Without a doubt
Singled out
The only way I know

I want to be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Cause I want to be the minority

There is a big problem with the religous groups complaining about things without even watching them here in the US. They employ retirees and other people with nothing better to do to write mass mailings to send into the Federal Communications Commission acting as concerned citizens. It is pretty terrible what the moral majority can accomplish and even more so how many people in government listen.

yeah seriously that is so stupid - i think the person who looked up the site should be named and blamed.. what was she looking for?

as for jerry springer.. i watched a bit of it and then turned it over (i didnt really like it) - a trick the 42000 complainees could have used (were it that they watched at all) rather than bothering the bbc

my friend works in the complaints dept for the bbc and most complaints came in before the show ever aired, that really is retarded - people are just too quick to jump on moral bandwagons
