Alright, this article both makes me disappointed in my political party, and makes me laugh: www.cnn.com/2006/SHOWBIZ/TV/03/02/children.television/index.htmlIt doesn't get anymore pathetic than this. Those damn Christian, Soccer-mom, Uber-right wing assholes just won't fucking stop when it comes to getting rid of TV. Their latest study is laughable. The test subjects they are using probably have eight different kinds of ADD. That's right. Eight. Even though their are two, that is how fucked this new study is. These people are probably using their own kids, their sweet 'angels'. Instead of blaming 'Teen Titans', they should get their fucking kids some anger management. I just want to know what these 'violent acts' are. They are probably slight bumps or shoulder touches, knowing the group who did the testing. And the 'questionable language'? Butt, loser, and stupid isn't god damn questionable. It is normally. Suck, ass, and damn is questionable. What I found funny was the executive director's name: Jim Dyke. It was a conservative group who did the testing, and its executive director's name is 'Jim Dyke'. If these kids do beat the shit outta each other, let them do it. It is called 'thinning the herd'.

No, Jesus Christ would accept that kind of language on TV. It is the nut-jubs like the priest of my church who think that is questionable. My priest actually started a boycott against the newest Harry Potter book.

This is retarded. For one thing, they are aiming at Teen Titans, but it is a frigging SUPER HERO COMIC CARTOON! They are supposed to beat up the bad guys!
Bad language!? I mean, I hear them say idiot and imbostle at the WORST! How the hell is butt a bad word? And what sexual suggested language are they talking about? There is sex in little kids' cartoons!?

TV will always have violence. Violence is funny. Violence is generally the difference between Barney and, say...Teen Titans. Sexual innuendos and even more violence separate any show on Cartoon Network from Drawn Together or South Park. And what do "they" classify as an "act of violence"?

Yeah, Zaku's probably right.
And plus, these people are doing a bad thing if they are going to turn Cartoon Network into the Wiggles and crap like that. The reason being:
I know little kids (Uhh....3-4th grade...) that watch MTV and Vh1. Y'know, Pimp my Ride, MTV Cribs, and stuff like that. The more they get rid of Cartoon Network and Disney stuff, the more the little kids will get annoyed and want to watch MTV and Vh1. It's like these people are against themselves...
