And last but not least, what if just your children were required to watch, and what if it wasn't blatant propaganda at all, but was subtle, almost subliminal, programming intended to limit critical thought, promote emotional reaction over rational reason, and deconstruct traditional values of family, patriarchy, self-sacrifice, and freedom?
Because that's what we're getting.

Point taken, except there is no mandate.
I watch very little television, but still want the option of turning on the news or the football game should my sweet little one decide to nap at an appropriate time.
