There are certainly channels with objectionable material, but there are plenty without. Advertisers want to keep their audiences, so they gear their advertising to their target audience. It's not failsafe, but if you monitor what your kids watch as you should, it's a non-issue.

You might think that you are presenting your case well, but this has all been said before. Books are easy to control. I simply buy what I want to read, and abstain from books that could be harmful to my walk with God. Computer? The only reasons I use it is for this forum, music and my wife uses facebook. Radio? I only listen to Christian stations.
Whether you choose to admit it or not, people remember more of what they see than what they hear. This is a known fact. The sad thing is, my co-worker who is a sinner, will admit that Hollywood pushes sin. She'll admit it, but no one on this forum will. That's just sad.
