To say that something always preached against is now okay is to say that you are now a hypocrite. Certainly not a viable stance.
Also, IMO it is still something that doesn't belong in the home.
Consider:
III VIOLENCE
Number of murders seen on TV by the time an average child finishes elementary school: 8,000 (!)
Number of violent acts seen on TV by age 18: 200,000 (!)
Percentage of Americans who believe TV violence helps precipitate real life mayhem: 79
There are a number of other stats that show the detrimental effect of tv.
If we are to set no wicked thing before our eyes, how can we condone tv?

It displays:
nudity
murder
homosexuality
promiscuity
alcoholism
drug addiction

This list could be astronomically larger.

NI

that's all true. no one should argue against that but what about the internet and the problem related to porn and child molestation???
are you equally alarmed about that ?
