Is foul language a right of passage in modern entertainment?
The inclusion of foul language on television and radio is just one more example of the degradation of America. Europe does it, so we have to.
What is really disappointing is when Sean Hannity, the moral evangelist, seems to have to do it..repeatedly, over and over. AndRush Limbaugh, the otherwise traditionalist, seems to need to do it too. Example: woman calls Limbaugh, flatters him over and over, tells him she is a home schooler, and she asksif he could please watch his language. He responds with a curse.
Why?
I do not understand how television and radio have been allowed to degrade. I don't understand who made that decision? I don't understand which president said foul language was ok, since it is the president who appoints the bureaucracy.
And more than that, I don't understand why it's seen as either necessary or fashionable. Entertainment can be lifting. Entertainment can make the soul rise and fly. But since not all writers, producers, actors are really talented...we go to the garbage. It's not just special effects whichare overused to replacesolid scripts and story lines, but sex and foul language.
America is in decline, we hear about it, and see it every day. Whether it's a loss of manufacturing jobs, increased unemployment, rising bankruptcies, America's fall is broad, wide, rapid and deep. But maybe it is the conservative talk show hosts who most epitomize the fall. They seem to need to shove foul language in our face.
I like Rush. And none of us are perfect. But alas, can't he do what each of us has to do in life, and recognize his fault in this area and make a correction. He does not need to say anything. He does not need to make a pronouncement of apology, he could just do it. And, in adopting the policy, set an example which would defeaning in its silence.
