FCC Affirms Broadcast Indecency Fines

-- Citizenlink.org

The Federal Communications Communication (FCC) will apparently stick by its decision to fine CBS $550,000 for singer Janet Jackson's infamous "wardrobe malfunction" during the 2004 Super Bowl halftime show.

"We're very pleased with this development," said Daniel Weiss, senior analyst for media and sexuality at Focus on the Family Action. "The FCC didn't issue a single citation in all of 2005, so we've been kind of wondering what's up. Now it looks like they intended to move all along – and are moving."

The nation's broadcasting watchdog also reportedly plans to announce actions soon against Fox, NBC and CBS TV stations and affiliates for violating decency standards.

"It appears that they're going to be issuing a whole new round of citations," he added. "They're going to be fining a number of stations, although the news reports say that not all of the citations will include fines."

Weiss said FCC Chairman Kevin Martin may be trying to establish an indecency standard for the networks.

"The FCC has been very sporadic and, frankly, inconsistent in its enforcement, so broadcasters have claimed they don't know where the indecency line is," he said. "Martin could be establishing that line for them, with the intention of adding fines if there are further violations."

According to published reports, one of the decisions involves Nicole Richie's use of two expletives during an appearance on the 2003 Billboard Music Awards, carried by Fox.

Weiss, by the way, said the fine against CBS was the maximum that can be imposed on a broadcaster for violation of indecency standards. The network, however, made that money back in just seven seconds during the 2005 Super Bowl. Each 30-second ad brought the network $2.4 million last year.

500 Scientists Question Evolutionary Theory

-- Citizenlink.org

More than 500 scientists signed a statement proclaiming doubt about the soundness of Darwin's theory of evolution.

"We are skeptical of claims for the ability of random mutation and natural selection to account for the complexity of life," the statement reads. "Careful examination of the evidence for Darwinian theory should be encouraged."

The list of those who have signed the "Scientific Dissent From Darwinism" was first published in 2001 as a counter to PBS's "Evolution" series which claimed "virtually every scientist in the world believes the theory to be true." At that time 100 scientists placed an ad in the New York Review of Books announcing their dissent.

The list has since grown by five times that number, fueled in part by several curriculum controversies in the last year.

Dr. David Berlinksi, a mathematician and philosopher of science with Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture (CSC), was one of the original signers.

"Darwin's theory of evolution is the great white elephant of contemporary thought," he said. "It is large, almost completely useless, and the object of superstitious awe."

Dr. John West, associate director of CSC, said it was the growing number of scientists who saw the flaws in evolutionary theory that prompted the organization to give the statement a permanent home on the Internet.

"Darwinists continue to claim that no serious scientists doubt the theory and yet here are 500 scientists who are willing to make public their skepticism about the theory," he said. "Darwinist efforts to use the courts, the media and academic tenure committees to suppress dissent and stifle discussion are in fact fueling even more dissent and inspiring more scientists to ask to be added to the list."

Abortion Banned in South Dakota

-- Citizenlink.org

South Dakota, today, became the first state in more than a decade to ban abortion. The Senate voted to pass the measure 47-22. The measure easily passed the state House two weeks ago.

The bill's only exception is if the mother's life is in danger.

Leslee Unruh, founder of the Alpha Center, a pregnancy-resource agency, said after a task force found abortion was detrimental to women, the Legislature did theright thing.

"Passage of this legislation culminates years of legislative efforts and fact-finding," she said. "The overwhelming mass of research could be ignored no longer. Abortion hurts women. South Dakota's Legislature heard the cry of those who have been harmed by abortion and passed this bill to protect women and children."

The bill will now head to the desk of Republican Gov. Mike Rounds to be signed into law.

"Now is the appropriate time for this legislation," Unruh said. "Governor Rounds, please sign this bill."

Missouri Grants Lesbian Couple the Right to Be Foster Parents

-- Citizenlink.org

A judge in Missouri ruled Friday that homosexuals can be foster parents, The Kansas City Star reported.

The state originally denied a license to Lisa Johnston because she had a same-sex relationship, which is illegal under Missouri law. Johnston wanted to raise a child with partner Dawn Roginski.

Citing the 2003 U.S. Supreme Court decision Lawrence v. Texas, which ruled existing state sodomy laws unenforceable, Jackson County Judge Sandra Midkiff said the state had no basis to deny Johnston the license.

"This is a victory for all the children in the Missouri foster-care system," Johnston said. "I'm overwhelmed with joy."

Deborah Scott, spokeswoman for the Department of Social Services, said the state plans to ask the court to stay its decision while the appeals process plays out.

She said the department was "disappointed by the decision and its implications for the state of Missouri."

Bill Maier, vice president and psychologist in residence at Focus on the Family, said a child is better served in a home with married, heterosexual parents. By approving same-sex parenting, he said, "you are deliberately depriving a child of either a mom or a dad."

Pregnancy-Related Deaths Lower in Countries That Restrict Abortion

-- Citizenlink.org

A United Nations Population Division study revealed that the legalization of abortion does not lower the number of deaths associated with pregnancy -- contrary to the longstanding claims of abortion advocates.

According to "The World Mortality Report: 2005," which was published at the start of this year, in countries where abortion is legal, there is a higher rate of maternal mortality than in countries that place restrictions on the procedure.

In Russia, where abortion is legal, the maternal mortality rate is 67 deaths for every 100,000 births. In the U.S., where there are almost no restrictions on abortion, the rate is 17 deaths for every 100,000 births.

Both Ireland and Poland, often criticized for strong restrictions on abortion, have better maternal mortality rates than Russia and the U.S. Ireland has the lowest rate of the four countries with only 5 deaths for every 100,000 births. In Poland, the rate is 13 deaths for every 100,000 births.

Brokeback to the Future

Check out this funny video. You will laugh your socks right off!!!! Produced by Emerson College's Chocolate Cake City, this trailer combines the storyline from Brokeback Mountain with everyone's favorite time travel movie.

I share this video, not to poke fun at those who struggle with homosexuality, but to illustrate the evil of those who try to convince society this behavior is OK. The reasons why it's wrong for an adult to have a sexual relationship with a five year old are some of the same reasons it's wrong for people of the same sex to engage in sexual relations. More to the point, however, to say that society should – or must -- embrace such destructive behavior is simply ludicrous!

While I haven't seen the movie, I hear Brokeback Mountain does a good job in their efforts at normalizing homosexuality by manipulating viewers' emotions into thinking homosexuality should be accepted as all right. This effective propagandizing reminds me of another film called The Eternal Jew. The Nazis distributed this film in 1940. An entire cultural mindset of the Germans became twisted after watching this film. You can watch the entire film for free right here .

FCC Says A La Carte Cable Pricing Means “Substantial” Savings To Consumers

-- Veritas News Online

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) today announced that cable customers would see “substantial benefits” if a la Carte programming, or pay-per-channel packaging, is allowed to be instituted.

The polls are clear: people want choice. However, the cable industry has tried to confuse the public into thinking their current “cable choice” programs already provide what consumers want. However, cable subscribers are not buying it. They know the technology is there for them to pay per channel. A lot of families want their FOX NEWS, their Discovery Channels, their ESPN, their favorite hobby channel; but they don’t want to pay for channels, like M-TV, that bring down their family. However, the detrimental channels are being forced into many of the so-called “family-friendly” choice packages.

Wouldn’t it be nice to see all your money go to only those channels you want to watch? Instead of paying $50 a month while wasting your time flipping through hundreds of channels you really don’t want to watch anyway, imagine being able to pay say $1.99 per month for every channels you do want to watch – as well those you know are safe for your whole family. That’s what a la carte programming will provide if it is enacted into law.

TAKE ACTION: By just a few simple clicks here, you can write a short letter to all your elected representatives in Washington. Tell them you want “a la carte” programming instituted into actual policy. Tell them it’s shown to work, and it helps your pocketbook at the same time.

Porn Leads to Reckless Driving Charge

-- Citizenlink.org

A Tennessee man who was apparently looking at pornography as he drove was charged with reckless endangerment Friday-- police said his erratic driving had caused others to fear an accident, Breitbart reported.

A woman called police after David Kennedy of Nashville almost ran her off the road. Rutherford County Deputy Tony Hall found the driver and pulled him over.

"When I made contact with the driver of the suspect vehicle," Hall said, "there were several pornographic magazines on the seat next to him."

Daniel Weiss, senior analyst for media and sexuality at Focus on the Family Action, said, with the addictive nature of pornography, it is not surprising that someone would endanger the lives of others while attempting to feed that addiction.

"Incidents like this dispel the myth of 'harmless adult entertainment.' Pornography is an insidious evil threatening the fabric of society," he said. "The sooner we start calling it and treating it for what it is -- a public health hazard -- the safer we'll all be."

Surprise! Surprise! Humpback Mountain Is Hollywood’s Choice

Guess what were the three top grossing movies for 2005? If you said Star Wars: Episode III, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, and the Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, then you are correct. Each of these three films was also qualified for this year’s Oscars. However, not one of these films was up for an Oscar nomination for Best Picture. Not only that, guess how many Oscar nominations these movies got -- just three nominations total; one for each film. Guess what movie received eight Oscar nominations – including Best Picture. Let me give you a hint. It coincidently comes on the heals of the Oscars. If you said Brokeback Mountain, then you are correct. (I’ll also give you credit if you said “Humpback Mountain” since they are the same thing.) Now if you’re thinking that these nominations reflect the promotion of Hollywood’s cultural and political agenda, you’re just thinking that because you’re just one of those radical, bigoted, right-wing conservatives.
