here is a petition against the airing of a song aired on hot97 in new york city that mocked tsunami victims while using racial slurs. the story is on the page. fcc complaints were filed. no response. the station suspended the deejays, however.
meanwhile, networks are pixellating CARTOON rear ends for fear that they will be fined by the fcc.
basically, showing quick clips of naked body parts are evil, while making fun of hundreds of thousands dead and mentioning that one wants to "shoot asians" is perfectly fine.
someone needs to fine the fcc for being a bunch of dolts.
also, if anyone can dig up dirt on eharmony.com, that would be great. i discovered that they were founded by a focus on the family nutjob. their online matching service is patented. this means that no one is allowed to use it without their permission. eharmony doesn't allow same sex pairings on their site. however, they mentioned it in their patent - basically, what i am getting at is that they can block sites that want to pair same sex couples if they employ the same method, and the method is pretty broad.

breasts are bad and should be banned, but making fun of 300,000 dead is okay
